Declared by the Colombian government as the “Number One” tourist attraction in the nation, the Salt Cathedral must be seen to be believed. The vast chambers, carved out of a still-working salt mine, hold moving art representing the 12 “Stations of the Cross” (Christ’s Passion), and chapels, plus a magnificent multi-chambered cathedral nave. New at the site are a reflecting pool, expanded gift shop area (with emeralds starting at $5), and an enjoyably silly 3-D movie on the construction of the salt mine.

Tours depart every day. Cost: $89 per person for groups of two or more. $119 for one person.
