Los Tres Ojos (The Three Eyes in English) is the name given to a 50-Yard open-air limestone cave located in the Mirador del Este park, in the Santo Domingo Este municipality of the Dominican Republic.〔Los Tres Ojos, ''Destination 360'' (Destination360.com ) Retrieved 21 June 2009〕 A series of three lakes, or ''ojos'',〔 République Dominicaine, Visites (Karavel.com ) Retrieved 21 June 2009〕 the site is currently one of the most visited tourist attractions in the country. The caves are open from 9 am to 5 pm,〔(''Dominican Republic and Haiti'' ), Paul Clammer, Michael Grosberg, Jens Porup, 2008, p. 87〕 and are illuminated at night by a myriad of colored lights. ==History== ''The site was created'' centuries ago as a result of tectonic fractures when underground caves collapsed, forming a bowl-shaped depression which subsequently filled with water.〔Cueva de los Tres Ojos/Three Eyes Cave, ''Viva Travel Guides'', Christopher Minster (Vivatravelguides.com ) Retrieved 21 June 2009〕 Initially, the cave was inhabited by the indigenous Taíno Indians who were the first inhabitants of the Hispaniola island. The three lakes are called "Lago de Azufre" (discovered in 1916), "La Nevera" and "El Lago de las Damas".〔 Parque Nacional Los Tres Ojos (Hoteles.com ) Retrieved 21 June 2009〕 Some of the lakes also have openings on the outside.〔 Visite de la grotte los tres ojos (Entre2voyages.com ) Retrieved 21 June 2009〕 A staircase cut into the rock gives access to the first cave. A boat pulls visitors across the second lake to give access to a fourth lake called "Los Zaramagullones," not considered one of the three "eyes" or main lakes since it has an opening to the outside.
