Grottoes Loltún

"TEMPORARILY CLOSED. The Loltun Grottoes are the largest open-to-the-public caves in Yucatan. The main cave is about two kilometers in length. The name is Mayan for "Flower Stone". The cave contains paintings attributed to the Mayan civilization from the Late Preclassic Era. It is also the location of the earliest human occupation in the Yucatán Peninsula, from at least 10,000 years ago. The entrance fee is 70 pesos. Your visit to the site is through a guided tour, hearing stories about the cave's history, legends, and nature. It is not physically demanding, the route is walked, and besides some slippery places, there are only a few specific places where it might be a little more complicated to walk through. Apart from the natural openings providing sunlight, the route is artificially illuminated at several points. This allows visitors to admire different geological formations inside. It remains temporarily closed as floods from extraordinary rains in 2020 blocked specific paths and ways."
