Singing and shouting should be punishable by torture as we were amongst the narcissistic youth and groups of students only interested in their Facebook photo or YouTube video opportunity. Maybe there should be a special day for these people to come and trample over these places and just talk and talk and talk. Can't even imagine this in summer.

This cave is quite something. you think it is going to be quite small but it goes back a long way. Nature at its most stupendous but must have been quite scary when it was a prison!

Quite a unique cave structure of massive proportions and a must on the tourist's visit to the park - excellent photographic opportunity

What a wonderful experience. The children really enjoyed making their voices echo throughout the cave. A visit is a must!

This is a remarkable place - really worth seeing! It was Caravaggio who said that it looked like the Ear of Dionysius and, although I have no idea about Dionysius' anatomy, it does look very aural...

You can't believe the scale of this "cave" until you enter. We were lucky to be the only people in it (off-season) for a while, which was very atmospheric, but shortly after our visit, an Italian tour group entered, with a singing tenor guide. We re-entered to enjoy the outstanding acoustics!

This ear-shaped cave has an amazing legend! What you absolutely must do is go as far as possible and shout "echo" and you will see the effect! (i was lucky enough to be on my own then so there was nobody to give me a funny look but then who cares!)

If you are visiting the Greek Theatre then its well worth the small detour (after the 2nd ticket booth) to walk down into the Latomia del Paradiso (Latomia = Quarry) where much of the stone for the Theatre was excavated. The Ear of Dionysius is so named as it is considered to resemble an ear, but you need a little... More

It's an impressively big cave down in the quarries, 65m high as I recall, but that's about it. Supposedly Caravaggio gave it its name, so that's something.
