Dangcheomuldonggul Cave (당처물동굴), located in Jeju, is a lava tube estimated to have been formed some 320,000 years ago due to volcanic activity; it is located some 3km underground.
With no entrance as such, the cave is not open to the general public and thus its original form remains preserved to this day, giving it a high geological value.
Although the Dangcheomuldonggul Cave is technically a lava tube, it resembles a limestone cave due to the secondary geological formations that have been formed by lime substances that have accumulated in the ground above the tube.
The tunnel has a spectacular and mystical beauty with countless stalactites and stalagmites, as well as stalactite columns.
The particularly thin stalactites and stalactic columns in this cave are well-known for their uniqueness and beauty.
Although this is a relatively small lava tunnel, its exotic colors and the richness of the secondary topological formations make it extraordinary in terms of research value.
This cave has been designated natural monument. ※ Geomunoreum Lava Tube System includes Bengdwigul, Manjanggul Cave, Gimnyeonggul, Yongcheondonggul and Dangcheomuldonggul, which have been designated as UNESCO World Natural Heritage Sites.
