Inside Turda Salt Mine, Romania - 112 metres (367 ft) deep with a lake in the bottom of it.

Turda Salt Mine is one of the oldest salt mines in the world. It was dug during medieval times for salt exploitation, with the first documented reference of the mine dating all the way back to 1271.

Excavations continued until 1932. After that, the salt mine served multiple purposes. The mine was used as a cheese storage unit, as well as a bomb shelter during World War 2.

Despite the passage of time, the mining and machinery used to transport salt were kept in an excellent state of preservation. And, in 1992, the salt mine was opened to tourists, offering visitors a fascinating glimpse into the past.
The mine entered a broad process of modernization and improvement in 2008. Now, history and innovation meet harmoniously here.

Turda Salt Mine: Main Attractions

The mine consists of an assembly of beautiful operating rooms and mine galleries, including:

The Iosif mine: famous for having a powerful sound echo, it can be visited through balconies carved in salt.

Crivac room: where visitors can see a rudimentary installation used for lifting salt rocks on the surface originally installed here in 1864.

Terezia mine: featuring halls of impressive measurements: 90 m height and 87 m in diameter.

Rudolph mine: which marks the last place where salt was exploited in Turda.

Gizela mine: that currently serves solely the work of health treatment. The underground gallery of the mine is a geological reserve, and tourists have no access to this area.

A labirint of lifts and stairs takes visitors deep into the heart of the salt mine.

There, 400-feet underground, you’ll find a theme park that looks straight out of a sci-fi movie. This unique attraction includes:

a large amphitheater,
a Ferris wheel,
a bowling alley
a mini-golf course
pool tables
a sport’s field
ping-pong courts
an underground lake you can explore on a paddle boat.

Considering all the available attractions, it’s easy to see why Business Insider placed the mine on top of their list of “coolest underground places in the world“.

However, visiting this Romanian gem is not only fun and exciting, it also yields significant health-related benefits.

Its microclimate provides the best conditions for the implementation of various rehabilitation therapies for internal diseases.
