The 3 Eyes National Park

Los Tres Ojos National Park : is a cave that has a freshwater lake, which was naturally divided into three lakes that are only seen from within and a unique lake that can be seen without being inside.

So we visited the park lakes as follows:
The first lake is called: Waters sulfurous, it is the first to reach him since we entered. His name is because in its background may notice a blanquecida substance and therefore people who attended this place thinking it was sulfur, but after scientific studies showed that sulfur was not but calcium and other minerals. It is 4 meters deep
