notes:

This is another of the arquitectonic wonders of the place. Named the portal of the guardians, this has too many references and meaning to describe here. However, I will tease those not from my country to come here with a simple and interesting situation. See the middle dr with the lizards (guardians)? Ok there is only dark behind it right? WRONG! Behind the guardians, with the side entrances now opened for viewing, you will find a second basin and an entrance to a cave (yes another one) that will go up and up and up until to come out in... halfway through the Initiation Well :) Are you sure you don't want to pay a visit? ;)

I believe that for every capture us he must be the personality of the photographer, otherwise I am all beautiful postcards. With simpathy.

I understand what you are trying to say. I will consider it in the future. Best regards my friend smile
