Description
Join us on this wonderful journey during which you will visit one of the greatest sites in Poland on the UNESCO World Heritage List, the Wieliczka Salt Mine and learn about the wonders it offers from a certified guide speaking the language of your choice! On our trip, in addition to seeing breathtaking views of the mine, you will also learn about the rich history of this place, which has been operating since the Middle Ages or more precisely, since the 13th century. What awaits you after descending 327 meters into the depths through winding tunnels full of secrets? While exploring the labyrinth of corridors, caves and chambers you will be amazed by the unique beauty of chapels carved entirely from rock salt, decorated with crystal salt chandeliers, and many artistic salt works with a historical message presenting the history of the mine! Let yourself be enchanted by the mine's underground lakes, which sparkle with a wonderful, mysterious glow. This is a great opportunity to get away from the hustle and bustle of tourist attractions for a while and relax. In addition to unique and charming views, the salt mine also has health properties. It has its own unique microclimate that has a beneficial effect on everyone and above all, alleviates respiratory problems. When you finish exploring all the nooks of the mine, your guide will take you upstairs by 'Szola' which is an old traditional, industrial elevator that miners started and ended each shift with to be able to overcome the huge depths of the mine as quickly as possible.Includes
