Light from above inside Gaping Gill cave in Ingleborough, Yorkshire Dales National Park (England). This is the largest cavern in Britain, known as the Main Chamber - comparable to St. Paul Cathedral in London. The Gaping Gill system is also one of Britainâ€™s longest and most complex cave systems, representing one of the unmistakable landmarks on the southern slopes of Ingleborough - a 105 metres (344 ft) deep pothole with the stream Fell Beck flowing into it. Opened to the public few times a year, this cave represents without doubt an undiscovered beauty of the nature.
