A place where many caves are connected by passages?
It's called a cave system. They are quite common. There are even more systems that are connected hydrologically although with no humanly-passable links. Wookey Hole, at the foot of the Mendip Hills in SW England is one such example. It discharges the River Axe whose tributaries are several major caves on the hills above it; and despite efforts over many decades and continuing, no-one has yet found a cavers' route from the sink caves to the resurgence; nor between the feeder caves.

How deep are the largest caves?
That's not an easy or obvious question to answer. The world's deepest cave is Voronya or Krubera Cave, in the Urals I think? but it's not ever so long. Caves like that plunge steeply via many shafts linked byrelatively short horizontal passages. The world's longest cave is the Flint Ridge Cave/ Mammoth Cave system, linking severals other caves too with a total of somewhere near 400 miles of passages; but I don't think its vertical range (as cave depths are oftenmore accurately described) is ever so great. Incidentqally its name has nothing to with Pleistocene animals. "Mammoth" was the adjective for the large passages near its main entrance. (ref: Wikipedia) In the UK, Ogod Ffynon Ddu, in South Wales, has a VR of just over 1000feet in its 28 miles of passages; I think the Three Coutnies System in NW England beats it indepth and length but it's not easy tryingto find this sort of information thanks to the Internet!

Is there water found in caves?
Oh yes! Most caves in limestone (most caves in fact) are formed by water and very many still hold the streams that are in fact still developing them. Such caves are called "active". Some are completely full of water and explorable only by specialised cave-divers. Caves or cave passages that have lost their formative streams are called "fossil" or "abandoned", but even in these water drips in from the rock's joints through which it percolates.
