Suse No Jaana

Reviewed By MaijuMaiju

A narrow entrance in the middle of a forest led into a huge cave! It was so exciting! There was a lot of space inside and you could walk quite far. It was my first time going into a cave and it was awewome! I really recommend this place! 森の中にせまい入口があって、中に入ると広い洞窟が広がっていた。とてもワクワクしました!!とてもおすすめです!
