Drip Cave (Goa Tetes)

A drip cave is under the waterfall at the end of the Glidih River. It is named Goa Tetes because water from above seeps and drips on the cave walls.

There are various myths and legends associated with Goa Tetes. In fact, the locals believe that the water from the cave is productive to make us more youthful.
