Caves of Aggtelek Karst and Slovak Karst

French: Grottes du karst d'Aggtelek et du karst de Slovaquie
The Caves of Aggtelek Karst and Slovak Karst is a World Heritage site in Slovakia and Hungary defined by the UNESCO in 1995 and definitely a recommended natural sightseeing location.
It is on position 1033 (854, 883, 71) in our monthly survey..

"The variety of formations and the fact that they are concentrated in a restricted area means that the 712 caves currently identified make up a typical temperate-zone karstic system. Because they display an extremely rare combination of tropical and glacial climatic effects, they make it possible to study geological history over tens of millions of years."
