In the Zoque language, the name of these magnificent caves, nestled in the foothills of the northern mountains of Chiapas, means "deep water." Beautiful landscapes and dense vegetation serve as a framework for these unique underground formations that are found in one of the regions with the highest rainfall in the world.

The caves are 492 m long, with eight rooms full of ghostly white and reddish concretions. The rooms of El Cenote and de los Peces Ciegos stand out, the latter with a body of water in which it is said that these blind fish exist, that is, they do not require natural light because they were born precisely inside the caverns.

3 km northeast of Teapa by state highway s / n.
