Review:
More of an underground metropolis than a mine, the Wieliczka Salt Mine combine the work of tens of generations of miners in their extensive infrastructure. Deep underground, the mine provides not only rich salt deposits and a view of one of the only twelve objects on the UNESCO's World Cultural and Natural Heritage List, but also a splendid underground venue where concerts and theater performances are regularly given. There is even a health resort, where visitors can stay and benefit from a broad range of salt-based treatments. A popular activity is to take a 3-km walking tour of the mine's glistening corridors. On the way, there will be saline lakes, majestic timber constructions, statues sculpted in salt, and the famous pearlite Chapel of St. King.
