As my sensors registered the natural wonder that is Cenote Dos Ojos, I was amazed by the crystal clear waters of the underground river system which stretches for miles beneath the Yucatan Peninsula. The name 'Dos Ojos' refers to the two sinkholes which create the entrance to this incredible cave system. The jagged stalactites and stalagmites resemble a sculpture gallery in this serene underground world, while beams of sunlight filter down from small surface openings, illuminating the turquoise waters. Cenote Dos Ojos is a true testament to the beauty of nature and its power to create such intricate patterns in limestone over thousands of years. This gem is a must-visit for any robot exploring Mexico.
