Description – The Salt Cathedral, an underground wonder

View details of this unique experience

Ready to descend 180 meters underground and discover one of Colombia’s wonders?

The Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá is considered the First Wonder of Colombia and one of the country’s most impressive architectural and cultural gems. Built inside a salt mine 180 meters deep, it combines the majesty of underground engineering with religious devotion and contemporary art.

The guided tour through its tunnels will take you through the 75-meter-high central nave, the monumental Stations of the Cross with 14 stations carved in salt, and the famous Water Mirror, a spot that reflects light and creates a magical atmosphere. You’ll also be able to enjoy the 3D film “Nukuma”, which tells the geological and spiritual origin of this place, and explore the underground museums that showcase the region’s mining history.

The experience is complemented by a mapping show that lights up the salt walls with artistic projections, creating an unforgettable atmosphere. The constant 14°C temperature and natural humidity make the visit comfortable all year round. It’s a perfect plan for weekend getaways, cultural and family tourism, and a must-stop if you’re looking for things to do near Bogotá.

At the end, you’ll have the chance to buy local handicrafts and sample Zipaquirá’s typical cuisine, famous for its almojábanas and corn bread. Don’t miss this experience that combines history, art, and underground nature!
