Advantages: Stunning attraction beautifully designed and a pleasure to see Disadvantages: No good for those with walking difficulties
Jameosdel Agua is well worth a visit. Situated in the north of lanzarote this stunning attraction can be reached by hiring a car or going on a North or full island tour. Designed by Ceaser Manrique (a famous artist/architect from Lanzarote) from a collapsed lava tunnel, Jameos del Agua is an amazing site to behold. As you descend the first set of stairs into a bar area you will already be in awe of the place. On the next level down you will find an undergound lake boasting tiny blind white albino crabs that are usually found many miles below sea level.

Of the many poems he wrote during that time, Dulce et Decorum Est is one of his most powerful and most famous. It tells of one particular experience he had during the war in which there is a gas attack and one of his fellow soldiers dies after being too late putting his gas mask on.
