Spelunking Grutas de Cacahuamilpa
In the morning we tried to find our way to the bus station that would serve buses and Combis (similar to Sherut in Israel or Marshrutka in Gerorgia). It took us some time, information on the Internet was contradictory, and even locals pointed us to different directions. At the end we took the bus service Costa Line which put us about 500 meters away from the entrance to the National Part Grutas de Cacahuamilpa. We opted for a Spanish speaking group tour to explore the caves. Grutas de Cacahuamilpa is one of the world's largest limestone cave system "live", which means that the groundwater is still filtered through it and stalagmite and stalactites are still being formed. The part of the cave that is accessible to the public is very well maintained, mostly very accessible, even for wheelchair users. Gigantic sized halls, interesting formations and even mountains inside them. People here love attributing known figures and characters from legends to the rock formation. Look, it looks like a cute dog, Virgin Mary, dog again, a couple kissing, Virgin Mary again and again, and dogs, goats and horses one after the other.
We finished the tour in approximately 2 hours and found decent public transportation backl to Taxco. Decent, but maybe not for everyone:
Doors are soooo... 2025 after all.... Nah, we don't need them...
