The Salt Mine
On Friday, we went to the Salt Mine outside Kraków. It was a long tour (though not so long as Auschwitz-Birkenau). The descent into the mine was via stairs, ultimately 821 of them, to the level 150 meters below the surface. I took a number of pictures, but the light level was so low for most of them that my little camera just would not produce a good image. But the largest chamber was well lit, and it revealed some remarkable images. This large chamber was in essence a church, filled with amazing carvings in the salt walls. You will recognize some of them.
