HERMOSO CENOTE CERRADO
El CENOTE SUYTUN es uno de los cenotes más icónicos de la península de Yucatán, ubicado a las afueras de la ciudad de Valladolid, México. Este cenote es famoso por su impresionante belleza y su característica apertura circular. El agua es cristalina y tiene un tono turquesa vibrante, que contrasta bellamente con las formaciones de piedra caliza que lo rodean. Una de las características más distintivas del Cenote Suytun es su única caverna subterránea. El cenote es semiabierto, y hay una gran plataforma de piedra plana en el centro que se extiende sobre el agua. Esta plataforma se ha convertido en un lugar popular para tomar fotos, especialmente cuando la luz del sol entra a través del agujero en el techo de la cueva, creando un rayo de luz mágico que resalta la plataforma y el agua circundante.
