if you have a chance to be in Sydney, Jenolan cave is a must go destination..
u wont regret trust me...
on our way, we stop at Katoomba(a place) to have a cable ride to see the three sisters...
the stories goes by saying during the ancient times, two chief was fighting for something
i don't really remember what was it but that time all you can fight for is power so i suppose so ????
one of the chief who had 3 daughters scared that if he lose the opponent will like take his daughters to be his wives soo he asked a witch to turn them into stone so if he really lose, the fellow cant have his daughters
but little did he know, he actually won the fight but sadly the witch was killed
so the 3 daughters untill now remains as stones waiting for someone to turn them back into human...
believe?? i dont know, cant judge... may be its true who knows
see the 3 block of stones together?? that's them....
big huh....
and you can find few waterfall here

i feel rich because iam around precious gem stones
yup all these rocks you see is precious and also semi precious gem stones..
they even have rules before letting us in..
no touching, no eating, no taking....
they even create names for everyone of them if it looks like something...
this is called the stairways heaven i think.. if its not never mind i think it is.:)
the guide said that the acoustic in the cave is so good even people wanted to have wedding and also concert here.. weird huh... since they say no eating no touching???
but seriously, he played a song inside and its good..
i took a video of it.. i will upload it with the rest.. all together in one post.. easier for you guys
