Niagara Cave is a limestone cave with some formations and nice river cave profiles. It has a small river which forms waterfalls, the largest being 18m high. This waterfall is called Niagara, after the Niagara Falls at the Canadian border, and is the reason why the cave is called Niagara Cave. The limestone contains several fossils, like Sunflower Coral. One room of the cave contains a wedding chapel, where more than 300 weddings took place.
