HISTORY / HISTORIA๐๐๐โช๐
The caves were discovered in 1971 when a couple of hunters were trying to catch a (fox), with the passing of time both explorers were little by little exploring and revealing different types of stones, formations and ecosystems๐๐๐คฉ

LEGEND/ LEYENDA๐๐๐โช๐
There is a local legend that refers to a man who was rich in those years, he was robbed and killed by a group of criminals, then his body was thrown into the cave, but the murderers made the mistake of dropping the sack of coins that had the wealthy man, and the name of (CAVE OF COINS) could not be recovered from there๐ค๐ฎ๐ซ
Existe una leyenda local que hace referencia a un hombre que era rico en esos aรฑos, fue robado y asesinado por un grupo de delincuentes, luego su cuerpo fue arrojado en la cueva, pero los asesinos cometieron el error de dejar caer el saco de monedas que tenia el hombre adinerado, y no pudo ser recuperado de alli el nombre de (CUEVA DE LAS MONEDAS)๐ฒ๐ค๐ข
A famous souvenir that you cannot stop making in this tourist site is to turn your 5 cent coin into a souvenir of the route! you can see in the video the fun process๐ค๐คฉ

The cost of the tickets was 14 euros, you must wait a period of 15 to 20 min for your tour guide, so I recommend you go to the restaurant and refresh yourself! nothing better than a SAGRES hahha๐๐๐ฆโ
El costo de las entradas fueron 14 euros, debes esperar un lapso de 15 a 20 min por tu guia turistico, por lo que te recomiendo ir al restaurante y refrescarte! nada mejor que una SAGRES hahha๐ป๐บ๐ฅ
ENTRY/ ENTRADA๐๐๐โช๐
We start the tour here, our guide is speaking Portuguese, I translate for you, he explains that we are going to descend 250 meters, and that we are going to get several areas inside the cave with different names and years of antiquity!๐๐๐
Comenzamos el recorrido aqui, nuestro guia esta hablando Portugues, te traduzco nos explica que vamos a descender 250 metros, y que vamos a conseguirnos varias zonas dentro de la cueva con nombres y aรฑos de antiguedad diferentes! ๐๐ค๐คฉ
calcareous rock๐งญ๐๐ถ
The structure of the cave is composed of calcareous rock that is formed by a physical-chemical process! Basically the erosion of the water is forming these structures! for millions of years making it a late evolutionary process
๐ฎ๐ฎ๐๐ณ
La estructura de la cueva esta compuesta por roca calcarea que se forma por un proceso fisico-quimico! basicamente la erosion del agua va formando estas estructuras! durante millones de aรฑos por lo que es un proceso evolutivo tardio๐๐๐ค
A stalactite is a stone that forms on the roof of the cave as a result of mineral seepage under the action of water, and a stalagmite is a rock that forms on the cave floor as chemical precipitation of minerals!๐๐ค๐ค๐ฎ
Una estalactita es una piedra que se forma en el techo de la cueva como resultado de la filtracion de minerales bajo accion del agua, y una estalagmita es una roca que se forma en el suelo de la cueva como precipitacion quimica de minerales! ๐ฒ๐ณ๐คช๐คฏ
There is no natural light inside the caves so it took more than 2 thousand light bulbs to drive us throughout the tour, this also makes it difficult to take pictures inside this cave system๐ถ๐
No existe luz natural dentro de las cuevas por lo que se necesito mas de 2mil bombillos para conducirnos durante todo el tour, esto tambien dificulta la toma de fotografias dentro de este sistema de cuevas๐ ๐๐
Nature is incredible, our tour guide explained to us that a stalacmite can take a thousand years to grow 10 centimeters, so under this principle the years in these calcareous formations can be calculated๐๐ค๐คฉ
La naturaleza es increible, nuestro guia turistico nos explicaba que una estalacmita puede tardar mil aรฑos para crecer 10 centimetros, por lo que bajo este principio se puede calcular los aรฑos en estas formaciones calcareas๐ฅโญโ
200,000YEAR๐งญ๐๐ซ
We have all been impressed, because every thousand years a stalactite grows 10 centimeters, inside the cave it is 2 meters high .... We are talking about a rock formation with more than 200 thousand years incredible?
๐ฎ๐ฎ๐๐ณ
Todos hemos quedado impresionados, porque cada mil aรฑos una estalactita crece 10 centimetros, dentro de la cueva esta esta con 2 metros de altura.... Estamos hablando de una formacion roca con mas de 200mil aรฑos increible?๐๐๐ค
Under the cave there is an average temperature of 18 degrees, there are several ecosystems here inside! some invertebrates, bats! animals adapted to living without natural light๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ท๐๐ค
debajo de la cueva hay una temperatura promedio de 18 grados, existen varios ecosistemas aqui dentro! algunos invertebrados, murcielados! animales adaptados a vivir sin luz natural๐ฎ๐๐
Lago da Felicidade, Sala do Presรฉpio, Algar dโรgua, Pastor, Cascata, Cรบpula Vermelha, Marรญtima, Capela Imperfeita, Abรณbada Vermelha and Fonte das Lรกgrimas all these are the names given to different areas of the cave
Always when we walk inside the cave we must see the ceiling of the cave because there are areas where stalacmites and stalactites join! which tells us that it was a process of thousands of years!๐ค๐คฉ๐ค
Siempre cuando vamos caminando dentro de la cueva debemos ver al techo de la cueva porque existen zonas donde las estalacmitas y estalactitas se unen! lo que nos dice que fue un proceso de miles de aรฑos!๐ฒ๐ง๐จ
Water is like a natural drill, every time it hits a rock with hundreds or thousands of years it creates a different figure, you can see in the video pure and natural water create pools of water๐๐ค
El agua es como un taladro natural, cada vez que golpea una roca con cientos o miles de aรฑos crea una figura diferente, puedes ver en el video agua pura y natural crear piscinas de agua๐ฆ๐ง๐
Visiting this natural site is a way to learn about Portugal and about science at the same time! I recommend it since you are not going to spend a lot of money to visit this area!๐๐๐คฉ
Visitar este sitio natural es una manera de conocer sobre portugal y sobre ciencia al mismo tiempo! te lo recomiendo ya que no vas a gastar mucho dinero para visitar esta zona!๐๐ฎ๐
Due to its cultural and scientific contribution, the grotto das moedas was recognized by UNESCO as a world cultural heritage!๐ค๐คฉ
Debido a su aporte cultural y cientifico la gruta das moedas fueron reconocidas por la UNESCO como patrimonio cultural mundial!๐๐๐ถ
LIQUORS/ LICORES๐น๐ฅโช๐
The site is known for making liqueurs of various flavors, from honey to mint, so if you stop by here you should not stop buying your liquor๐๐๐
