The Salt Mountain
The Salt Mountain is located in Slanic Prahova, Romania.
There is a hole into the mountain (called the Bride’s Cave) through which you can see a saline lake. The sun rays reflected in the lake create a wonderful sight.
Here is the story of the Bride’s Cave:
My grand-grandmother told me the story as she got to know the bride’s mother whose daughter was very beautiful.. She was so beautiful that every man in Slanic Prahova who knew her wanted to marry her but the girl wasn’t interested in any of them.
One day the girl’s mother told her daughter that she would have to marry a rich boy.
She was very unhappy on the wedding day. When the wedding ceremony finished she ran as fast as she could up to the cave. In that time the cave was huge. It was like a giant salt-mountain. She climbed up to the top. Then, she threw herself into the clear-blue salty and cold water. Since then nobody has heard anything about her.
