♥ Mulu Caves !

The View Of Mulu Caves!

The first time I came here is when I am ten years old. The view of this cave amazed me like WOW. I think this is the most precious moment I ever had :D  

Gunung Mulu National Park near Miri,Sarawak Borneo, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that encompasses caves and karst formations in a mountainous equatorial rain forest setting. The park is famous for its caves and the expeditions that have been mounted to explore them and their surrounding rainforest, most notably the Royal Geographical Society Expedition of 1977-1978, which saw over 100 scientists in the field for 15 months. This initiated a series of over 20 expeditions now drawn together as the Mulu Caves Project.

The national park is named after Mount Mulu, the second highest mountain in Sarawak.

 Since 1978 these caves have been the focus for a succession of expeditions and this website holds a record of the discoveries made during that period. 

  As we move into the 21st Century, humanity appears to have explored to the limits of our environment. using technology we can photograph the surface of distant planets, probe the immensity of space, scan the beds of the deepest oceans, image the inside of living bodies and picture the surface of structures to microscopic detail. In such a world, it might be imagined imagined that there is no true exploration left to be done. But this would be untrue.

 Under the surface of our planet lies a parallel world, a world of great beauty and mystery formed over thousands of years by the most elemental of forces, the passage of water through rock. This world, the domain of caves, remains largely unexplored. In northern Sarawak, the Mulu Caves project is making progress on this journey of discovery.
