A fantastic hiking trail leads along here, amidst beautiful nature 💚 highly recommended. The bridge is very sturdy and leads to the glass caves, which are stunning and definitely worth a visit 👍🏻. I wonder what kind of hard work it must have been to create these tunnels and then extract sand to produce glass. Unfortunately, it didn't bring the Spanish the desired success, so the project was abandoned. The poor local population then used the caves as shelter. Unthinkable in this day and age.

In any case, these small caves round off the hike.
These are not residential caves, but actually “tunnels”. White sand was mined here and was used to produce glass.
