Discovered in 2000, Mexico's Cave of Crystals contains some of the largest natural crystals ever found, some over 10m long.
Going underground to see natures beauty is not easy though, apparently only a handful of geologists have had the priviledge. With temperatures between 50-60C and 100% humidity, explorers need to gear up as conditions such as these causes fluid to condense inside the lungs.
Discovered by accident by miners working in the Naica silver caves, it makes me wonder just how many more beautiful scenes there out there, waiting for human discovery.
That thought is exciting.
