Cenote

According to Wikipedia, “A cenote is a natural pit, or sinkhole, resulting from the collapse of limestone bedrock that exposes groundwater. The regional term is specifically associated with the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, where cenotes were commonly used for water supplies by the ancient Maya…”

We loved the one we visited. I had heard from others that the mineral water was restorative – can’t argue with that! We couldn’t take pictures actually in the water (which was probably 50 steps down), but here are some pics from above.
