The entrance to the cave is very beautiful, surrounded by trees with huge rocks used as a path to the cellars. A model that depicts hope in a future Lebanon through its complexity and 18 religious sects is present in the entrance of the first room.
Various tools, music instruments, baskets and old utensils are properly displayed in the first room, some of the items are made by Mr. Ghandi himself using the traditional methods known to each era. Small steps lead you from one room to another or more approprietly from one era to the next.
A tunnel shaped stairs takes you down to the breathtaking room that dates back to 400 years (Ottoman cellars). These cellars hold some agricultural tools, coffee bean grinder, jars, clothes, a crib, a small opening on the right will lead you to the final room that holds a great collection of paintings that represent life in the village.
