Salina Turda is a salt mine in the small town of Turda, Romania. In it there's a lake, on which you can ride a boat. :D

I went to the mines expecting a lot, and I was not disappointed at all! While staying at Casa Nobilium (an cozy little guesthouse in Turda), I was able to walk just a couple of minutes to the old entrance of the salt mine.

Salina Turda is about one kilmeter long, but it has various chambers and pits along the way. The echo chamber is very exciting, as you should be able to hear your shout echoed back to you 13 times! I counted. It's true.

Moving along, you learn about the equipment and ways of the mines from back in the day. You also learn about salt and its uses in respiratory therapy. I had no idea salt was such a magical mineral. People come to this mine to spend hours just breathing in the natural clean air as a respiratory therapy. Young kids come with their families to build their immune systems. The air in Salina Turda is some of the cleanest air, perfect if you have a respiratory issue.

Down 112 meters from the walkway, there's a salt lake at the bottom of one of the chambers. In the middle there's a small salt island! for just 15 lei (less than $4 USD) you can rent a little boat and paddle around. It was much more thrilling than I expected.

The walls of the salt mine, embedded in the mountain in Turda, Romania, come up all around you, and reach so high above you that it's just breath-taking. I floated around in my boat for quite a while just staring above and around me in wonder.
