Salt at the surface

In Buzău Land, salt is never far away. A salt massif lies beneath the Meledic Plateau, and the geopark lists salt massifs among the sights of the area.

Where it reaches the surface, the rain dissolves and sculpts it: white slopes, fluted cliffs, crystal crusts, and streams running between whitened boulders.

In 1901, Alexandru Vlahuță was already writing about the “mounds of salt” of this part of the country.
