Wieliczka Salt Mine 🏰⛏️ - A Dreamlike Underground City at -135m!

📍 Descending into History: At -135 meters (equivalent to a 50-story building!), this 13th-century salt mine hides a surreal world: ✅ Chapels & Lakes: Underground churches with salt-carved "Last Supper" replicas and shimmering brine pools. ✅ St. Kinga’s Chapel: A football-field-sized cavern sculpted by 3 miners over 67 years—walls, chandeliers, even the "floor tiles" are pure salt! ✅ Celebrity Visitors: Chopin, Copernicus, and Goethe once walked these tunnels. 🔍 Two Ways to Explore: 1️⃣ Classic Tourist Route 🚶‍♂️ Guided groups (English/Spanish/Italian) descend 380 wooden stairs (yes, it’s chilly—bring a jacket!). Ends with an elevator ride back up. 2️⃣ Miners’ Route ⛑️ Dress as a miner, use vintage tools, and crawl through narrow tunnels (no cameras allowed!). Meet at Regis Shaft, 10 mins from the main entrance. #WieliczkaSaltMine #UndergroundWonders #PolandTravel #SurrealPlaces
