Salt Cathedral of Zipaquira
Known as Colombia’s first wonder, entirely carved from salt and unique in the world, the Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá located 180 metres underground offers a truly extraordinary experience far removed from the everyday.
Originally, it was a mine where workers built a small chapel. Little did they imagine it would become a must-see attraction for visitors. Every step inside the Cathedral will amaze you, from the Way of the Cross to the choir, featuring a balcony where you can admire the world’s largest underground cross, measuring 16 metres high and 10 metres wide.
