Hallstatt Final Entry
For my last edit on this page, I choose to add a little information to the history of salt mining. I discovered in my research of this beautiful Austrian city that the world's first salt mine was founded upon it's soil. This was very interesting to me because I had never really thought of salt mining in the first place. I am incredibly excited to check it out myself in just a few short months when I travel to Europe. Here is my contribution to the article: "It is possible to tour the world's first salt mine, located above downtown Hallstatt." See for yourself here!
