Holy Crystal Cave (Camotes Island)

" Keep nothing but MEMORIES. Kill nothing but TIME. Leave nothing but FOOTPRINTS.Take something but PICTURES. "

"Be prepared to be amazed, expect the unexpected" - Mr.Avito's line

Entering on this cave on your own is a BIG NO NO, based on Mr. Avito it is locked with latin prayers so no one can just easily go inside there without him(good to know ).

Cave history

Because of his passion and dedication on things maybe that's why he is the chosen one to discover such "gem" like this cave.                

Do's and Don'ts

Please do respect this Do's and Don't, don't be such "pasaway" disobedient, if it's not allowed to touch, DON'T. I know we humans is curious on lots of things, it's like "Adan and Eve's" curiosity about "Tree of the Knowledge of good and evil" fruit.

Entrance to the Cave

It looks tiny hole but you'll get in there fine.  :) Are you nervous now ? (ahaha)    

Human Bones

This is what Mr. Avito found inside the cave. (I apologize for the not so sharp image flash is not allowed he said upon entering the cave)          

         Stalactites with studded crystals and dripping water                     

Stalactites(it looks like rib of something)       

Sparkling Stalagmites

Geez!(expression) I am in love with the sparkly thing. 

     

Stalagmites and Stalactites 

They are about to join together into a single column.

Sto. Nino (like structure)

river flowing(like)

                                           

Teeth (like)          

                with Camote crops(like) on the top                                  

                walls of studded crystal                                

little tiny space 

That space is so tiny obviously you can't stand over there this is on the 6th and last level.     

                                                                                       

entrance and exit

There is no other exit on this cave so wherever you enter that's the way out. Good thing he don't try to dig another hole for exit, if ever there is stranger with bad motives will be trapped inside, He is the only way inside and out. :)

such a humble man, Mr. Avito                          

with friends and Mr. Avito

Mr. Avito once said that if he want to be famous and rich maybe he is on that point of his life now. He don't need those fame and money, the only motives he have is to put smile to people who appreciate what they can see inside the cave. His dedication and passion what admires me most aside from amazing crystals, stalactites and stalagmites inside the cave. He is such a good and entertaining tourist guide. You will hear him saying all the time "guest from (wherever the guest from) proudly present". As I can see that he is so proud to what he discovered few years ago and now he is sharing it to the world (who would not be proud to discover treasure like that). And based on what he said he has done all the work himself as neither the government officials have any financial assistance. Well sir I guess being independent what makes this place so great.

I am not just entertained but I have learned a lot of things. My question that how can we breathe inside the cave answered when he said that oxygen rock/stone help us to breathe normally(aha) and about how to know the age of crystal  is by it's layer. 

                                                               

It is indeed the most enchanting cave I visited in Camotes. This cave is my favourite so far among the caves I visited it doesn't need development to showcase the beauty of it. Just the natural beauty(raw) of it is enough to blew your mind away. It is like a hidden treasure not just for Mr.Avito but for us who live here on earth. So whoever visit the Holy Crystal Cave please do give it a lot of RESPECT.

         

Thank you so much Mr. Avito Montero Formentera.

Continue your passion and dedication on preserving the Holy Crystal Cave, let Him be the one to repay for your good deeds. God bless you.
