Cueva de los Verdes is a stunning lava tube located on the island of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, Spain. Formed approximately 3,000 years ago during the eruption of the La Corona volcano, this intricate cave system extends for over 6 kilometers. It is one of the longest volcanic tunnels in the world. The cave's name, which translates to "Green's Cave," is derived from the Verde family who once owned the land. Visitors can explore the cave on guided tours, marveling at its striking geological formations, unique rock textures, and the play of light and shadow that accentuates its natural beauty.
