Poland


Wieliczka, Poland

This is a card of the Wieliczka Salt Mine, specifically Saint Kinga's Chapel.  The salt mine famously includes various statues and an entire cathedral made out of salt.  Pictured is a copy of Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper made in the rock salt.  A picture of that can be found on wikipedia here.

This site was named one to the original UNESCO list of the World Heritage Sites in 1978.
