Salina Turda – A Subterranean Marvel of History and Modern Entertainment

Then, breathe in the pure, mineral-rich air of the Gizela Mine, known for its therapeutic microclimate, particularly beneficial for respiratory health.

Finally, step back in time in the Crivac Room, where you’ll find an original wooden winch (crivac), once used to haul salt to the surface, a testament to the ingenuity of early miners.

With an audio guide included, you’ll unravel the fascinating stories behind this underground masterpiece, making it an unforgettable highlight of your journey.
