The limestone of the Yucatán Peninsula, shaped by the planet's changes over millions of years, allowed the formation of what we now know as cenotes and caves. This project is situated within one of these natural formations, a cave-cenote discovered within a natural park on the outskirts of Tulum, Quintana Roo.
