The first wonder of Colombia, as the Salt Cathedral is known in Zipaquirá, is carved entirely of salt and is the largest salt rock reserve in the world. No doubt, it is a unique place in the country and in the world. It´s located 180 m underground, and the tour is a unique and magical experience, from the Way of the Cross till Coru, a balcony from where you can see the tallest cross underground in the world, with a height of 16 metres by 10 metres wide. You have never seen anything like this before! And not just that, in Zipaquirá you can enjoy its good gastronomy, nature, industry, and other nearby attractions
