The sun passes through a small natural entrance at the top of the vault, illuminating the interior and creating an impressive image with the reflection of the water.
The cenote was discovered by a farmer while looking for his lost pig that had fallen into the cenote.
The meaning of pig in Maya is "x-keken", and is the name Cenote had at the beginning which is already known as 'dzitnup'.
In the Dzitnup cenote, stalactites are reflected in this blue water of this natural well discovered in the 1950s.
Its entrance is narrow and the descent is made through well carved stone steps, leading to a place that allows access to the only room of the cavity. There is a turquoise lake, decorated with stalagmites, which descend from the vault and duplicate its image in the water. The light coming out of the ceiling increases its majesty.
This place has some impressive sized caves whose lighting highlights the beautiful rock formations. The crystal clear waters of this cenote are perfect for a good bath.
