A world of subterranean wonders, a milestone in geological discoveries, Luray caverns, is a wonderful weekend getaway for those who are living near DC or Virginia. It is around 2 hours (or more) drive from washington DC.
This is a picture of the "Dream Lake", a spring of water which has a mirror-like appearance. Stalactites are reflected in the water making them appear to be stalagmites. This gives an illusion that the lake is deeper. The lake is connected to a spring that continues deeper into the caverns.
All in all, it was my first time exploring caverns. It was a fun filled day, learning the stories of the cavern.

Tips:
1) It is very crowded on weekends and holidays. If you want to enjoy peaceful, slow paced, less crowded tour of the caverns, go on weekdays.
2) If you visit the caverns, look for these things-
Saracen's tent - scarves and shawls of translucent calcite, falling in graceful folds, fringed with a thousand patterns, and so thin that a candle light can reveal the structure within!
The fried eggs formation - yes, it looks like fried eggs ;)
The Great Stalacpipe Organ - An actual organ which plays music- sounds of Stalactites! DO NOT miss this one!

"Very friendly and welcoming staff. The lobby was beautifully decorated for the Holiday, including an enormous handmade gingerbread scene! We were upgraded to a lovely king suite with small lounge area. "

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were clean, the beds were very comfortable, and the view / beach access was great. They only thing I wasn’t to happy with was the pool area. The pool was not the warm, it had a very strong smell of chlorine, and the pool room was dripping water from the ceiling. It made me feel gross . But the staff was very great . Would definitely stay here again. "
