[Poland🇵🇱The world's first World Heritage Site made entirely of rock salt]

I've heard of Poland, but what's there? I know about Krakow and Warsaw, but... There are probably many people who don't have an image of Poland. I was one of them until I visited! This time, I'd like to introduce the world's first World Heritage Site, which I was most impressed by when I actually visited Poland. 📍Wieliczka Salt Mine Location: Daniłowicza 10, 32-020 Wieliczka, Poland Ticket: about 5,000 yen Access: ・From Krakow Central Station, take the train to Wieliczka Rynek-Kopalnia for about 20 minutes (1-2 trains per hour) ・Take the bus (no. 304) from Dworzec Główny Zachód bus terminal to Wieliczka Kopalnia Soli. About 1 hour The Wieliczka Salt Mine is easily accessible from Krakow and is a salt mine that stretches 300km underground. 😳✨ It's surprising that such a huge cave exists, but inside there are also large buildings, churches, and even a pond. As for the church, it's surprising that all the chandeliers and sculptures are made of rock salt. You'll be mesmerized by its beauty and rarity. ✨ There are also shops, restaurants, and cafes where you can buy souvenirs inside the cave, so you can really get a feel for how huge it is. It was so grand that I felt it could be registered as a World Heritage Site! Entry is only by guided tour, so it's interesting to listen to the explanation. If you can understand English, it's recommended to walk close to the guide. You may not be able to hear the voice if you're at the back. They will tell you various things, such as the legend that led to the discovery of this huge cave and the purpose of the structure. ⚠️Tickets are often sold out, so get them online early. You can only enter the cave as part of a guided tour, so you cannot enter on your own. #EuropeExploration
