Such a great mystery and spectacle. Would love to live there! Go if just for the wonder and intricate beauty (and to marvel at how long it must have taken!)

This place is insane. Go to be awed over the millions of shells lining the cavernous tunnels. No once knows who created it or why it exists. £3.50 for entry.

104 feet of underground tunnel lined by millions of shells in intricate patterns. Seems to be some debate over whether it dates from medieval times or 19th century, but either way: bizarre and unique
