Cenote Escondido y Cenote Ikil: geological sink holes that are filled with refreshing ground water and are crystal clear. We had lots of fun swimming in them! Because there are no rivers in the yucatan peninsula, they were both sources of fresh water for the Mayas and they were believed to be a connection to the afterlife. Anthropologists have found gold offerings and the skulls of human sacrifices in the cenote sagrado at chichen itza.
