Still Waters Posted November 24, 2012 #1 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Building a chapel 800metres below the Earth's surface is hardly conventional. Yet, these striking images show how one salt mine in Colombia has been turned into a place of sanctuary. Now a major tourist attraction, the mine in Nemocon, Cundinamarca, around 58 miles from the country's capital Bogota, dates back over 500 years. http://www.dailymail...-salt-mine.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashotep Posted November 24, 2012 #2 Share Posted November 24, 2012 This isn't the first time I have heard of salt mines being used for other things besides getting salt. I've heard they store old movies in them because they don't deteriorate as fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
