Why Turda Salt Mine matters

Descend into a vast salt cavern that now holds a lake you can row on, a Ferris wheel and a sports area. The walls glitter and the air is cool and clean. It's a surreal place and a fun half-day trip from Cluj.

Talking points

  • It has a lake and a Ferris wheel underground.
