My Dad had sent this to me and it is just
Amazing. Salt miners created beautiful sculptures
Form salt. One of the floorings is also
Made from salt to look like tile. The work
Is beautiful.

You just need to scroll down to see it all, some down further are better than ones on the top...

I never fail to be amazed at the power and creativity of the human mind (and hands)! Thanks for this, Tussie.

P.S. The floor is out of this world! So is the rock salt chandelier!

Deep inside Poland is an old salt mine at Weiliczka, where miners, over many years, tried their best to humanize the underground environment by creating stunning artworks wherever they could find room.

I like that spirit, got to find some way to humanize going off to the salt mines every day (especially when you are litterally going off to the salt mines :laff:)
