Unfortunately, this cave with the Budda could not be found. But a few other caves. Very nice there by the river. However, many paths that are not marked on the map.

The Cueva de los Riscos, also known as the Cueva de Vacamía, is located in the natural setting of the Dúrcal River, very close to the municipality of Villamena, in the province of Granada. Although not well-known among tourists, it is frequented by local hikers and explorers.

A makeshift wooden platform has been placed in one of the cave's main chambers.

There is a decapitated Buddha, along with a female figure (not clearly identified), and many candle remains scattered on the floor.
