Espetacular.

Espetacular.

Espetacular.

Espetacular.

Se você assistir ao vídeo, vai perceber que essa foi provavelmente a palavra que mais repeti durante a visita à Caverna de Postojna.

E não foi por acaso.

Saímos de Ljubljana de carro e chegamos a um dos lugares mais impressionantes que já visitamos. Não apenas pela grandiosidade da natureza, mas pela forma como a experiência foi pensada para receber visitantes.

Tudo começa com um trem que percorre o interior da caverna por vários quilômetros, atravessando galerias, salões e formações rochosas que parecem saídas de outro planeta.

Lá dentro, a cada curva, a sensação é de descoberta. E, em vários momentos, é difícil acreditar que tudo aquilo foi esculpido pacientemente pela natureza ao longo de milhões de anos.

Mas o que mais me chamou atenção foi a estrutura criada para tornar essa maravilha acessível ao público. Estacionamentos amplos, restaurantes, lojas, áreas de apoio, um impressionante anfiteatro subterrâneo e uma operação extremamente organizada permitem que milhares de pessoas visitem a caverna todos os anos sem perder o encanto da experiência.

Acabamos almoçando por lá e transformando o passeio em um programa de praticamente um dia inteiro.

Há lugares bonitos.

Há lugares surpreendentes.

E há lugares que nos fazem repetir a mesma palavra o tempo todo.

Postojna pertence a essa categoria.

Um lugar único, inesquecível e absolutamente espetacular.

A castle hidden in a cliff, secret passageways, and a legend of a knight.🏰✨

Exploring Predjama Castle felt like stepping into a storybook. From hidden corners to breathtaking views, every part of this place has a tale to tell.

Ten years ago, on 30 May 2016, exactly 142 days after one of Postojna Cave's guides first spotted an olm egg, the first baby dragon hatched.

That extraordinary year marked the beginning of an important scientific collaboration. Together with biologists from the Biotechnical Faculty of the University of Ljubljana, Postojna Cave established a special cave laboratory that enabled continuous monitoring and systematic study of the olm brood. Through close cooperation, the development of the young olms was carefully guided and observed, leading to numerous studies and valuable new scientific insights into this unique species.

Throughout the past decade, the Postojna Cave team has cared for the baby dragons with great responsibility and respect. In partnership with the scientific community, we have consistently advocated for non-invasive research methods that ensure the well-being of the animals and preserve their natural behaviour.

And the story continues. Recently, biologists returned to monitor the brood once again, confirming what we were delighted to hear: our baby dragons are healthy, thriving, and doing well.

Happy 10th birthday to our extraordinary underground ambassadors! 🐉🖤

This month, Postojna Cave is proudly celebrating the 10th birthday of our famous baby dragons.🐉

Back in 2016, for the first time, the world watched in real time as the world-famous brood of tiny olms hatched before visitors’ eyes - from eggs, embryos and larvae to playful little baby olms. It was a magical moment that captured hearts around the globe and marked an important milestone in the story of these extraordinary cave creatures.

Yesterday, we celebrated this special anniversary in the sweetest possible way - by gifting special baby bodysuits to newborns at the Gynaecological and Maternity Hospital Postojna - Porodnišnica Postojna.👶💚

The babies born this month now share their birth month with our beloved baby dragons, creating a beautiful connection between new life above and below the surface of the Karst world.✨

Postojna Cave has fascinated visitors for centuries with its magnificent stalactites, rising stalagmites, and breathtaking limestone curtains that flow like frozen waterfalls through its underground halls.

Shaped slowly over thousands of years by mineral-rich water, these delicate limestone curtains hang gracefully from the cave walls, their soft waves, glowing colors, and almost transparent appearance creating one of the cave’s most mesmerizing natural wonders. Nature’s artistry here feels almost unreal. ✨

Some places stay in your memory forever… this is one of them.

🪲 Did you know that the discovery of the Slenderneck Beetle (Leptodirus hochenwartii) in Postojna Cave helped lay the foundations of biospeleobiology?

At the Vivarium, the famous olm is not the only underground star. Visitors can take more time to observe the mysterious “baby dragon" and also discover many other fascinating cave animals that reveal the hidden world of karst underground life.

🐉 A perfect experience for young explorers and everyone fascinated by nature and cave life.

to one of the most extraordinary moments in the history of Postojna Cave.🐉✨

Ten years ago, something incredible happened deep beneath the surface of Slovenia. For the very first time in Postojna Cave, visitors witnessed the birth of olms in real time. From delicate eggs and tiny embryos to hatching larvae and playful little baby olms, also known as baby dragons.

The story quickly became an international sensation. This remarkable event was featured around the world by BBC, CNN, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, The New York Times and The Guardian.

The baby dragons also drew the attention of scientists from around the world. Thanks to the unique conditions in Postojna Cave, researchers were given a rare opportunity to closely observe and study the development of olms like never before.

A decade later, the little dragons still inspire wonder, curiosity and discovery. 💚

Postojna Cave, with its breathtaking views and vast, echoing halls, never ceases to amaze our visitors. Every corner reveals something new, every moment feels surreal. It’s an experience they never forget. ✨


・・・
Non mi vergogno ad ammetterlo…

ho pianto.

Anche se era la seconda volta che entravo dentro le grotte di Postumia… ho pianto.

La natura che così silenziosamente e lentamente ha creato lo spettacolo più bello che un uomo possa vedere.

Nessun architetto, ingegnere o geometra potrebbe mai fare di meglio.

Così immenso e allo stesso tempo racchiuso. Così potente e fragile. Gocce insignificanti di acqua che hanno creato un monto sotterraneo.

Io mi sono commossa. Perché mai nella mia vita riuscirò a fare cose tanto belle!

La nostra terra è una, ed è mozzafiato… rispettiamola sempre vi prego.
Perché voglio continuare ad emozionarmi!
