                <description><![CDATA[The Salt mine has been visited by many high standing people, including Prince Edward, and is an awesome sight.  The tour takes you on a trip down the mine in stages and explains about the workings and the medicinal properties the climate has.  However, what is truly spectacular are the many salt carvings and the magnificent commissioned church at the bottom.  From the altar, which features a picture of the last supper, right down to the tiles on the floor, everything is carved from salt. This place is truly a wonder of the modern world.]]></description>
