A rather unique place in the vast expanses of the former USSR. Wagons are lowered into the cave. A comfortable and interesting excursion, especially for tourists with children. And, of course, the opportunity to take a 1.5 hour break from the sweltering Abkhazian heat.
Cons: it is better to arrive in the morning, much in advance of the expected hour of visiting the cave. Tickets for the root are bought by tour companies for large groups of tourists and you have to wait for an "empty seat" in the queue at the entrance for an average of 1.5 - 2 hours. Sometimes there are no tickets at all. Waiting, naturally in the heat, outdoors.
There is a toilet, moderately dirty and small. It is completely not designed for a passability of several thousand tourists per day.
The lack of its own parking. Rather, there is a parking lot, but it has been seized by local merchants. The cost of placing a car is 250 rubles.

I'm not a fan of such places, but the cave was very impressive in its scale. The guide competently and consistently told about the history of the cave, many beautiful locations. I really liked it! Of course, there are disadvantages, firstly parking, in order to leave the car for 1.5 hours you need to pay 250 rubles, secondly - a huge number of people, especially when they come in groups. There is a very huge queue.

An unforgettable experience. In the first two halls, the height and depth of the cave take your breath away. Every room is getting more interesting. The time of the tour flies by unnoticed. I want to warn you, be sure to take sweatshirts with you, do not wear flip-flops and sandals, you need closed shoes, because climbing up and down in wet sandals (it is very wet and cold in the cave) is just extreme. All attention is not on the cave, but on how not to slip out of the flip-flops
