"Our world’s caves are places of wonder, mystery and majestic beauty. Show caves around the world are embracing their role in protecting and preserving caves and providing a place for people to learn about these special, natural, cultural and historical resources.
Show caves also play another important nature tourism role of sustainable economic development, providing jobs, and helping the economy of their regions.”
The 9th Spanish Congress on Show Caves and Mines, CUEVATUR IX, was recently celebrated in Karrantza (Bizkaia, Spain). Pozalagua Cave was the host of a meeting which gathered cave owners, managers and lovers. The event, which was celebrated in Pulpi (Almería, Spain) two years ago, was an absolute success and its main theme was ‘Geology and Tourism: Complementary Realities’.
The International Show Caves Association joined an event which takes place every other year, and members of the ISCA Board of Directors organised an international round table in order to discuss and share some of the most important topics related to the show cave business.
