Inside the caves impressive rock formations are observed that fill the space in the large chambers. There are many interesting stalagmites and stalactites. One of the most spectacular chambers is known as "El salón de la luz" (The Light Chamber) named because of the natural clarity of the rock on the ceiling allowing light from outside to filter through. "La octava maravilla" (The Eighth Wonder) is a formation in the cave where a stalagmite connected with a stalactite to form a column. "El salón del aire" (The Air Chamber) exhibits a balcony that is 40 meters high.
