Top 8 Caves 팔레스타인 주변

really really very tiring

The path that leads up to the hermitage is steep and rugged. The person who takes care of the hermitage is usually present on Saturday mornings, the other days the gate is closed. We met him by chance on Sunday.

Mysterious Caves of Palazzolo, a short distance from Rocca di Papa and Albano, with a balcony view of Lake Castel Gandolfo. Close to a medieval convent, these cavities were used as stone mines in the Roman and medieval periods but some scholars hypothesize that they also functioned as prisons in unspecified periods. The frequenting of the area by brigand gangs in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries is documented by reliable historical sources. In recent times, however, these mirrors have apparently hosted satanic masses and other similar rites.

The Sanctuary of Mentorella is one of the oldest Marian sanctuaries in Europe. Inside the sanctuary there is the cave of San Benedetto, a truly special place: it is a tiny cave which is accessed via a very narrow gap in the rock. Right at the entrance there is a shrine with the bones of the friars. In the sanctuary there is also a small refuge that is always open, with bathrooms and tables.

Once at the Sanctuary it is worth looking out at the Grotta di San Benedetto. A small cave in the mountain at the entrance to which there is a case with the bones of some Benedictines.

spectacular single track .... but beware of people walking around

A unique monument of its kind in this area. To visit. It is not easy to get there by bike, but there are no difficulties on foot

the Caves can be visited all year round, along a path that runs along the upper part of Lake Albano. The path is traveled by many people on mountain bikes and on foot. Taking the path of the Devil keeping the path to the right, then straight. Unfortunately, beyond the caves the collapse of a wall no longer allows, as years before, to take the route of the lakes, one is forced to go back.
