Declared the first wonder of Colombia. This attraction is 180 meters underground to build it, 250 thousand tons of rock salt had to be extracted and Its structure is a mix of precise engineering and interesting history. When entering the Cathedral you can smell the minerals and the darkness takes hold of everything. Shortly after, a set of lights uncovers the carved rock and the tunnels that house the Stations of the Cross, every nave has beautiful sculptures carved by miners and sculptors. Another one of the main attractions is the mirrors of water, previously full of brine water (where the salt was saturated). The surroundings are illuminated by the reflection of the light on the water creating a fascinating optical effect of swimming in an underground cavern.
