Quinta da Regaleira's Creepy Initiation Well: Unraveling The Mysteries Of A Subterranean Marvel

Underground Tunnels Four tunnels are built from the bottom of the well to the grottoes and a second well. The walls of these tunnels have pink and brown undertones. They represent the transition from death to resurrection, and the road from darkness (ignorance) to light (enlightenment), and they appear to bring together various elements of the fantastical world. This well was not constructed for the purpose of collecting water. Instead, these mysterious tower wells were used for confidential initiation sacraments.
