Salt Cave in Belgium - and a Cycling Museum, beside France and Luxembourg



Flag of Belgium from Wikipedia. Tricolour, black, yellow and red.

A salt cave in Belgium - for the novelty or for your health. I am a great believer in salt, as a gargle if you have a sore throat and no other resources.

But can it actually help or cure any of the other conditions they mention?

What is not yet clear to me is the difference between the visit to the salt cave, at Aubange in Belgium and the saltarium at a higher price.
You might pop into the shop which sells salt candles and other products.

Aubange is in the south-east point of Belgium, adjoining France and Luxembourg.

My favourite added to my wishlist is the cycling museum at Arlon. It has all kinds of cycles and even cycling board games.
