History

Aladdin

It is here in the Cave, where Genie's Lamp resided and, later on, Jafar's Lamp. According to the Magic of the Cave the only one capable of entering the cave is "the diamond in the rough" aka Aladdin. The Cave is also known to be the former resting place of Magic Carpet which was found in the treasure room. When the Forbidden Treasure is touched, The Cave roars as if in pain and returns to the sand where the two halves of a Golden Scarab falls powerless.

The Return Of Jafar

Abis Mal is shown to keep a statue of the Cave Of Wonders within his lair.
