Halef spends the whole morning inside the Molnar Janos Cave.
He decides to join MJCave Dive for their Budapest Cave Diving Expedition. There is quite a bit of orientation and introduction necessary prior to doing a dive like this. Cave diving, even dives like this one, are quite dangerous if you don't take safety seriously.
This is our first cave diving experience, and it is the best way to explore Budapest Underground.

From our intro post on Molnar Janos Cave:
For centuries, from Roman times through the rule of the Ottoman Empire, hot thermal water has supplied Budapest, allowing its unique thermal bath culture to flourish. They built elaborate Budapest spa baths and medicinal pools. The never-ending thermal water was used for the enjoyment of the residents and visitors for centuries.
But how did Budapest manage to produce so much hot water? Where did this water come from? Not until recently have scientist and their modern technology discovered the answers to these questions.
The city of Budapest sits atop a geological fault line that allows geothermal elements to interact with the groundwater. This unusual interaction creates a stream of hot thermal water that seeps to the surface.
For millions of years, the water and its geothermal activities have carved myriad passages, creating a series of cave systems hidden from the surface.
This underground world was only discovered and understood in the late 19th century. A pharmacist named Molnár János started the underground content study, which eventually lead the discovery of the cave system and its exploration.
A local dive club started scuba diving the Molnár János cave in the 70s and 80s. They mapped the extensive underground network. Discoveries of new entrances, tunnels, connections, and hallways have been a regular occurrence throughout the exploration.
To date, only about 7 km of the Molnár János Cave system are mapped and identified.
The cave has been a protected area since 1982.
