I been thinking of this site for a long time. All ways meaning to start looking for the entrance. It was a stroke of luck I bumped in to someone while bouldering that knew how to get in. The next day I was there and in :D. It has small dug out tunnels that labyrinth around the site. I could not find any well. Though I have been told that the well has been covered on the road surface above. Most of the tunnels have clear spring water covering the floor, sometimes the water has a cloudy brittle skin of what looks like salt. It breaks apart like ice when walking through it. Any way I hope my photos show more than I can explain in this report.
Enjoy :thumb

I think it's salt coming through with the water.

Salt build up on the floor, solid but crust is soft.
