The name ‘Boca Da Vaca,’ meaning ‘Mouth of the Cow’ in Portuguese, comes from the unique cow-shaped structure through which water used to flow. Today, the spring is housed within an elegantly designed space, featuring a glass-covered floor that allows visitors to view the flowing water beneath. Soft lighting enhances the tranquil ambiance, especially in the evenings, making it a peaceful retreat from the city’s hustle.
Many believe in the spring’s medicinal properties and visit to collect water, while visitors are drawn to the soothing environment and the calming background music that echoes through the well-lit tunnel. Located just a short distance from the Kadamba Bus Terminus, this spot is easily reachable by bus, taxi, or motorbike.
