On our Tour you will be able to see directly the only underground cathedral in the world located in Colombia, built 180m underground, it is a mega structure that deserves to be among the most impressive in our country and on the planet.
The entire structure of this cathedral is carved from salt from the largest salt rock deposit in the world. During the tour there are several stations where you will see the interpretation of the Christian way of the cross, in addition to the central dome where Eucharists are held, intervened by an amazing artistic work of sculpture and lighting, and also natural structures typical of salt deposits, a set of elements that will leave you breathless.
Once you finish the tour of the salt mine, the town of Zipaquirá awaits us to visit its central square, some of its beautiful colonial-looking streets where we will find the ideal place to enjoy a typical lunch.

5.00The tour was very complete, we met the salt cathedral which itself is a space full of color, feeling and spirituality. Our guide Brayan was really very attentive throughout, the trip would not have been the same. We will recommend it with our friends and we will take one more next visit.
Great Experience! Worth every minute.
