Covetes dels Moros, Cave system in Bocairent, Spain.
The mountain face contains 53 artificial cave openings arranged in three to four irregular levels across the vertical rock surface.
Archaeological studies suggest these caves were constructed during Visigothic or Arab occupation periods, with evidence of tomb structures in surrounding areas.
The caves received protection as a Cultural Heritage Site in 1931, marking their significance in the Valencia region's architectural legacy.
Modern metal stairs facilitate access to the caves, replacing the historical climbing method required to reach the main entrance 8 meters above ground.
Each chamber features anchor rings and door fitting mechanisms, with rectangular layouts measuring between 2.5x3 meters and 2.5x4 meters.
