LEARN MOREIt is worth keeping in mind that the beauty of nature is not only what we see on the surface of the earth - it also encompasses the amazing places hidden deep underground, invisible to the human eyes. The “Wieliczka” Salt Mine is definitely one of such places.
LEARN MOREWhile underground, the tourists can admire beautiful chambers, some of which are chapels, including the most famous of all, the St Kinga’s Chapel. The Wieliczka mine is associated with this patron saint, which is why it may be worthwhile to learn more about the fragment of the mine devoted to her.
