Welcome to Colombia
The Salt Cathedral in Zipaquira (www.catedralde...) is the first wonder of Colombia (www.eltiempo.c...) and is considered one of the most notable architectural and artistic achievements of architecture in Colombia, so it bears the title of architectonic jewel of modernity.
The Salt Cathedral of Zipaquira is located in 29 kilometers of Bogotá and can be reached by the Train of La Sabana (www.turistren....). The entrance fee to the Salth Cathedral for adults is 57,000 Colombian pesos (17 dollars) and for children between 4 and 12 years and people with disabilities is 47,000 Colombian pesos (14 dollars).
Although the Cathedral is the main attraction, it is part of the Parque de la Sal Zipaquirá, a tourist space that allows visitors to learn about mining in Colombia and also about salt as an artistic resource. In the Salt Cathedral you can travel viacrucis stations under the effect of colored lights and, in addition, a 3D film about salt extraction in Colombia is presented.
The exploitation of this mine has a history that goes through pre-Columbian times and goes through colonial times and continues to make history today. It was the former Muiscas indigenous people who first benefited from this huge salt deposit, which is now one of Colombia's main tourist destinations.

it is (it was) a church, but you don't need to be Catholic or even Christian to admire the magnificence of this place.

[@COLOMBIAFRANK]

I totally agree!

[@oharagalban3367]

Hermoso lugar!!! Me regresé a Uruguay pensando cuando voy a volver 😍😍, y por si a alguien le sirve el dato, nosotros(3 personas) pagamos un auto a 80.000 pesos colombianos(ida y vuelta) q nos llevó dsd LA Candelaria hasta la catedral y nos fue a buscar, uber cuesta aprox 95000 y para quien no conoce es una manera muy segura de disfrutar de los paisajes en el camino (precios, agosto 2019)

Lugares de almirar

[@pepperseed11]

This is so impressive . What is the height and weight of the cross in there , please ?

[@COLOMBIAFRANK]

I don't know but it is huge

[@martinez3073]

Actually is zero, cause that is an empty space with the shape of the cross. The lights give an optical illusion of volume.

[@mayankkakkar9259]

@@martinez3073this is a really smart answer but where can I confirm this? This is because I did go there in 2016 but your answer isn’t clear with reference.

[@arodriguez167]

Great place to visit in Bogota

[@martinez3073]

Not exactly in Bogotá but 45km away.

[@arodriguez167]
