Go diving in 700 meter-long caves just right under Budapest.
Cave complex in subterrene of Buda (Buda is the eastern bank of Budapest) was found in XIX century by pharmacologist Janos Molnar.
It took 200 years to explore 7000 meters of Janos Molnar caves – submerged underground labyrinth at a depth of more than 80 meters. Warm thermal springs seep out of earth at the bottom and cold karstic water flows from the mountains – that’s why the temperature in the underground differs (from 23°C to 27°C).

How to do?
1.Going down into the cave is possible only with an aqualung. If it’s you very first dive, you’d better take preparatory diving lessons (ask provider for details, for example here). Book a diving, ask the organizer about meeting point – land-based entry is on the bank of the Danube.
2. While swimming along the underground corridors, breathe steadily, don’t thrash about and don’t touch walls of the cave – limestone can come crashing down and muddy the water
