Photos of Hallstatt and Altausee Salt Mine

There is a salt cave halfway up the mountain behind the town. It has a history of more than 7,000 years. It is the oldest salt mine in the world and one of the must-see attractions in Hall Tate. Visitors can take the cable car to go there. After arriving at the cable car station, they can see a restaurant. After climbing up for about 15 minutes, they will see the salt pit. After that, they have to change into "miners' clothes" and take a small train to enter the cave. After getting off the bus, I walked into a twisty, deep and strange passage. Since the mine was deep underground, it was very interesting to slide down a slide. In the mine, there is a movie room to introduce the history of the salt pit and the mining process, so that visitors can deepen their understanding of the salt cave; there is also an underground salt lake, the level is like a mirror, in addition, tourists can also visit the original salt mine workers' dormitory "Salt Miners". Attractions such as the House of Excavated Clothes and tools used to mine rock salt are displayed.
