O znamenitosti

Hitre informacije: Vklesan v vulkanski tuf na egerskem pobočju, ta nekdanji harem obsega 150 metrov rovov na treh nivojih. Osmanske legende pravijo, da je dolina dobila ime po lokalnih ženskah, ki so z lepoto zamotile vdirajoče turške vojake.

Poudarki: Za razliko od hladnega kamna večine evropskih gradov so bile te dvorane vklesane neposredno v mehko vulkansko kamnino, kar je pustilo gladke ukrivljene stene in grozljive kupolaste strope, oblikovane z ročnim orodjem. Stoje v najgloblji dvorani boste slišali vodo, ki kaplja skozi 10 milijonov let star porozen tuf, isto kamnino, ki je zgradila znamenite egerske termalne kopeli.

Notranji nasveti

Wear sturdy shoes with grip as the cave floors stay damp and can be slippery near the lower chambers.
Bring a light jacket even in summer, the tunnels hover at a crisp 12°C no matter the weather outside.
The narrowest passage near the end requires ducking, watch your head if you're over 175 cm tall.
Skip the audio guide and go with one of the hourly guided tours for local stories the recording doesn't cover.
