Wieliczka

300 yards deep within the earth...




















is the treasure of
Wieliczka Salt Mine.


For centuries
the miners have
carved statues and reliefs
from the salt


























The beautiful chapel of
St. Kinga is completely
created in salt and is
the sight of dozens
of weddings each year.












It is truly an ancient and
modern marvel!
