Fantastic Caverns
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fantastic Caverns is a show cave located in Springfield, Missouri, first explored in 1867 by a group of twelve women. Fantastic Caverns is the only cave in North America to offer a completely ride-through tour, which lasts 55 minutes and is held in a Jeep-drawn tram.
The caverns were used as a speak-easy during the prohibition years and hosted music concerts during the 1960's.
The temperature inside Fantastic Caverns is about 60°F (15°C). In the winter and fall, billboards advertise that the cave is a "warm 60 degrees," while in the summer and spring, billboards advertise the caverns to be a "cool 60 degrees."
