Session (1) from 11 am, and Session (2) from 2 pm

It can be hard to find hibernating bats, even though they may be hanging just close by.
During this hibernation period only, a special staff guide shows you the bat’s secret whereabouts in the cave.

One or two days
between mid-February to mid-March.

Taking full advantage of the cave’s acoustic effects, various concerts have been performed.
Thus far, a wide variety of music genres have been staged, for example, flamenco, violin, ocarina, and even whistling. The cave’s fantastic space – as well as its beautiful acoustics – greatly impressed both visitors and performers alike.
