Chislehurst Caves

Ranking the second place on our list of the most beautiful caves in the United Kingdom is Chislehurst Caves. Chislehurst Caves are a network of man-made tunnels beneath the suburbs of Bromley in South East London, originally excavated as chalk and flint mines. The 35-kilometer-long Chislehurst Caves, first opened to the public as a show attraction in the twentieth century, quickly became a famous tourist destination.

Chislehurst has been used for a variety of reasons over the years. It was used to store munitions during World War I and to shelter 15,000 civilians from air attacks during World War II. Chislehurst Caves was also a prominent concert venue in the 1960s, with David Bowie, Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, and Status Quo performing there. Chislehurst Caverns is one of England's top caves, with only guided visits available.
