Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá

I was surprised to find out that this is considered the first wonder of Colombia. This I only learned upon my arrival, as I did not know before hand. I was fascinated at seeing work of this kind in the salt mine, SPECTACULAR!

Beyond simply religious reasons, this is a place you MUST visit. It's very well organized for tourists and you can spend the entire afternoon exploring the interior chambers and the attractions surrounding the cathedral. The city of Zipaquira is only a few miles from the capital, Bogota, and you can reach it without any problems.
