The Quadiriki Caves, also called Guadirikiri Caves
History of Gabriela Rox - Sergipe, Brasil
The Quadiriki Caves, also called Guadirikiri Caves, are located in the Arikok National Park in Aruba, featuring Amerindian cave paintings. The largest cave, about 150 m long, has two naturally lit chambers and a third that is damp and dark. Stalactites and stalagmites adorn the limestone cave. A smaller cave to the east stands out for its cave paintings. According to local legend, the caves are linked to a mythical story of tragic love between the daughter of an Indian chief and her lover, both with fateful destinies inside the caves, ascending to the heavens through openings in the ceiling.
