There are three different caves in total, the Dan-yr-Ogof, Cathedral Cave and the Bone Cave which all offer something different. In the Dan-yr-Ogof cave you'll walk for about 1 kilometre through decorated passageways and tunnels.

The Cathedral Cave features forty feet high waterfalls and enormous caverns and the Bone Cave is where you'll learn about the human skeletons that were buried here. 

The Dinosaur Park is one of the largest collections of life-sized dinosaur models and there's 200 of them in total! See if you can find your favourite and is you can tel the difference from a T-Rex and a Brachiosaurus.
