Then, discover stalagmites and stalactites hanging from the cave’s walls. Stroll through carefully illuminated tunnels whose ceiling reflection on water mirrors causes the visual effect and feeling of being on the edge of an abyss. There are 28 of these saturation tanks.
Get to the heart of the mine, literally. It’s a lighted 1.6-ton carved crystalline halite salt crystal—the biggest in South America.
