Wieliczka Salt Mine
The Wieliczka Salt Mine is near Krakow, Poland. The mine was in operation from the 1300's-1996. The mine is now just a tourist attraction. Here there are sculptures made from pure salt. The world's largest underground chapel is also here. At one point I was 135 meters below the Earth's surface! There are about 178 miles worth of tunnels inside the mine
