The caves are dug by hand into a clay hillside, using only pick-axes, they can be up to 4 metres wide and must be dome-shaped to avoid collapse. The finished cave is painted with porous chalk paint and individual cave rooms are separated by curtains (not doors) to allow free circulation of air between caves........read more: Purullena.
