Overview

We visit the biggest Salt Mine in Europe!
Along with its beauty and history, the Slanic Salt Mine is also one of the biggest therapeutic sites in Romania, a two-level mine featuring a microclimate with natural air-conditioning and constant temperature and atmospheric pressure throughout the year.

Going further up the mountain, we have the opportunity to take a glance at how Romanians lead their lives in the Carpathians in picturesque villages full of traditional decorations and household items.
