I love this place!! I first read about it on this com a couple of years back. Always good to get new news.

Certainly one of the most amazing wonders of the natural world! Nature is a greater artist than any of us.

comparing this to the sistine chapel is almost insulting to it, imo.
giant crystals vs chapel dedicated to a religion that has caused little but suffering?
Go go giant crystals

Protip: The awesome thing about the Sistine Chapel isn't the religion it's a chapel for. It's the incredible art on the ceiling that Michaelangelo spent four years of his life painting. Less religion trashing more awesome nature stuff plzkthx.

A cave of naturally formed crystals still has nothing to do with a man-made religious painting, durp

Both are things of incredible beauty, hurp
