Friouato Caves: Largest Cave System In Northern Africa
MessageToEagle.com – The Friouato Caves stretch for kilometers underground, with the deepest cavern being 150 feet deep. Located near the town of Taza, Morrocco, it is the largest cave system in North Africa.
It is unknown when the inhabitants of Taza first discovered the cave system, but French speleologist Norbert Casteret entered this this spectacular underground world in 1930.
In 1969, an expedition team from the Exeter University discovered other sections of the caves in 1969, locating expansive chambers and a collection of boulders. The caves are decorated in beautiful stalagmite, rock features and large limestone tables.
