Sannur Cave Protected Area

Sannur Cave Reserve is a cave located southeast of the city of Beni Suef in Egypt. It is a limestone cave overlaid with alabaster created by thermal springs.
Geological impacts have played a major role in the emergence of unique features and beautiful formations of stalactites and stalagmites, which are among the rarest of their kind in the world, which led the cave to being recognized as a Protected Area in 1992.
