These caves are considered the most spectacular caves in Puebla and are also easily accessible.
During the tour, several chambers are visited: the Diamond Chamber, the White Chamber, the Chamber of Memories, the Chamber of Silence, and it ends at the Enchanted Lagoon, named for the mirror effect that reflects all the formations of the cave, making it seem like you are contemplating an underground city.
The main gallery has a height of 30 meters and features a huge stalagmite that has been named the Column of Independence.
One of the unique characteristics of this cave is that during the dry season, the mineral salts adhered to the walls and ceiling, when in contact with light, create flashes, a natural phenomenon known as "Starry Rain."
