Flipping little liars them guidebookers.
Look at what they promise:
“The idea of a fun trip to a salt mine may sound a little dubious. And as you head out through the suburbs you may wonder just why you are leaving the glories of the city behind. However, it is not just the antiquity of these mines that makes them worth the trip (things got fully underway here as early as the thirteenth century), they are also home to one of the wonders of Poland. This is the chapel of the Blessed Kinga, which to all intents and purposes is a full blown church, the only difference being that it is 200 metres undergound, and carved entirely from salt, (including the chandeliers that hang from the ceiling). It is a quite astounding sight, and all the more so as it was carved not by an outsider, but by a group of gifted miners themselves.”
And can you lick the statues? No!
I imagine this is some hang over from the years of repression, as I've never been stopped from licking up a bit of the old marble in the good old United of Kingdom.
I suppose this is what passes for Polandish wit.
