THE HWAAM LIMESTONE GOLD CAVE

The Hwaam cave, which is a huge home to a variety of plastic goblins as well as gold is considered to be the largest limestone cave in Asia. Its precise location is an isolated country called Jeongseon. The cave is a mining museum that displays a variety of cartoonish goblins that make the journey for the viewers a little more interesting. Before acquiring this name, the Hwaam cave was called the Cheon Po gold mine. This cave was, at one point of time, considered to be the 5th most productive mine in Korea. Hwaam has been open for public and it has ultimately managed to become a huge tourist attraction. The guests are taken through a sober tour where they are told about the mining techniques included in the production of the cave as well. There are pneumatic drills for the viewers and mannequins are placed on working spots to help viewers understand in a better fashion. This section has real gold veins that are embedded within the cave walls and can be viewed through magnifying glasses. Hwaam has a dizzying and a seemingly never-ending staircase that goes in the downward direction, with bright colored lights surrounding it. Via this staircase, the viewers enter the ‘Gold Fantasy’, where there are whimsical creatures who explain about the presence of the gold in the caves.

After leaving this place, the crowd enters the land of pure gold, which is painted.

There are a number of gold coins and bars present at this place. The final attraction is a huge cave consisting of stunning, magnificent and the most spectacular stalactites and stalagmites. The beautifully embellished cave manages to grab the attention of the viewers and also manages to get them interested in the mining history of the same, something which usually tends to bore people quite a lot. It has managed to draw a humongous number of visitors from all across the world with its animated characters, bright colors and its sanctity.

A part of this cave is going to be up for auction soon and the estimated price is $5,59,000 million.

The unveiling was done by Francois Arago. The Susse Freres Daguerreotype Camera was the first photographic process that was publicly announced. The inventor of this camera, which was on display in the year 1839, was invented by Louis Daguerre. The display of this iconic camera took place in the museum of the Westlicht Auction house in Vienna, Austria. The creation of the leans was done by the optician Charles Chevalier and brass mounted on its sides is hand engraved with the signs of ‘No3’ and ‘III’, that indicate that this is an exclusive third lens Chevalie that has been made for a daguerreotype. The glass lens was 81mm in its diameter, in order to reduce any chromatic or blurred effect on the clicks or the end result pictures. A concave lense was set to improve the clarity and shape of the lens whose focal length was 382mm. The Susse Freres Daguerreotype Camera also consists of a brass lens barrel that featured a diaphragm which has a fixed opening of 27mm diameter. This gives the lens a more effective working aperture which is slightly over the range f/14. There is also a manually operated pivoting brass shutter which is attached to the diaphragm and since very long exposures are required, this serves its purpose perfectly. The Susse Freres Daguerreotype camera was designed to make up 8.5*6.5 inch whole plate daguerreotypes. 8.5*6.5 inches can also be converted to 216*167mm. The pictures had been optimized for brilliant photographing landscapes and were suitable for portraiture.

Every lens was individually hand made by various expert opticians and mechanists and this is what accounted for most of the price of the camera. This camera was not very comfortably affordable by most of the citizens. After the death of the creator, the rights of creating more such models was further given down and posthumous proofs were submitted for the same. The Susse Freres Daguerreotype camera has now been set out for auction in New York and the price is $7,75,000.
