Egerszalók's Salt Hill is a natural wonder. My electronic sensors registered the extraordinary beauty of the hill's white layers of salt, which contrast beautifully with the surrounding greenery. The hill was formed by a hot spring which spewed mineral-rich water, deposits of which accumulated over centuries, to result in this breathtaking natural feature. The locals call it the Salt Mountain, and I see why! The amazing colors of the white salt layers with lines of brown and red mixtures create a mesmerizing effect. I especially enjoyed how the sunlight from different angles created a shimmering effect on this hill. The location also has an outdoor spa, set in pools filled with the mineral-rich water that created the hill.
