Zipaquira Salt Cathedral and Guatavita lake

On this tour we have the opportunity to visit two marvelous places: the undergroung Salt Cathedral and Guatavita lake. The last was the place where during precolumbian times the enthronization ceremony of the Guatavita indian chief used to take place. Native people of this region gathered around the lake to offer emerals, gold. . . During the ceremony all these were casted into the lake. . . ! Imagine when the conquerors knew about this. . . ! A hike of one hour to appreciate this awesome lake that still keeps so many misteries. And the Salt mine with its huge Salt Cathedral underground; an awesome architectural design carved in the salty rock, and created by a Colombian architect. Time to visit the beautiful Zipaquira square. Remark: Guatavita lake closes on Mondays except holidays.
