Anzu caves

                                                It is a group of caverns that are found throughout the area of ​​the birth of the river Anzu, that is to the north-west of the city of Puyo and to the north of the city of Mera.

The vegetation cover of the area in which the caves are located, for the most part, has been eliminated, because the forest has been cleared to make agricultural crops or to plant grass. However, because it is a mountain slope, where the Anzú and Puyo rivers are born, a great number of slopes are observed, which maintain secondary forests with certain primary forest residues, as well as advanced secondary forests.

The entrance vault to the cavern, is about two and a half to three meters high by about four meters wide, then narrows and the height of the entrance is about fifty centimeters high.
