Its story

The cave is on the limestone slopes of Kocadağ, within the Yelki neighborhood of Güzelbahçe. After a steep, narrow descent, you reach a large hall more than 20 meters high. It is a dry cave whose formation is complete, and pottery fragments found inside show that it was used in antiquity. It is not a developed show cave.
