Cenote Ik-Kil - located in the Yucatan peninsula near the Caribbean coast of Mexico - is an excellent example of the wonders of nature; It was created entirely naturally by an underground tunnel whose waters washed over the clump of limestone that stood above it and carved the great deep Cenote. Today you can see the great walls which stand like a fortress around the water-gorge that has pooled, on which a stone staircase was built for the safety of tourists descending into the heart of the cenote. The walls of the site are also embedded with artificial waterfalls and small balconies that were built as observation posts for visitors.

The color of the dots depends on the mineral from which they are made up of, with most of them receiving their color from the sulfate magnesium that crystallizes while boiling; During the summer months, the various minerals harden to create channels and paths between and around the colored dots.
