Dim Cave
Dim Mağarası
A large stalactite cave at the foot of the Taurus Mountains, with a path of about 360 meters leading to a small lake at the bottom. The cave entrance overlooks the Dim River valley.
Dim Cave sits on a hillside at an elevation of about 230 meters. The visitable section is about 360 meters long, with paths and lighting. Along the way are stalactites, stalagmites, and columns in a variety of shapes, ending at a clear little lake. The cave maintains a steady temperature of about 18 to 19°C, making it especially refreshing in summer. At the entrance are a viewing platform and café, with views over the valley and the sea in the distance. It is about 11 kilometers from the city center and is often visited on the same day as the Dim River.
