Helpfulness
For me it is something unbelievable ! Though i never visited any mine before, but i never expected that i can find a proper cafeteria inside a Salt Mine !!!
It was very nicely built with salt bricks and lighted by the bulbs and tube lights. I was totally astronished to see it. I must thank the ministry or mining and tourism who supported the idea of building a cafe for tourists inside the mine.
Favorite Dish:
You should definitely stop here and have either a coffee or a juice. The quality of burgers might not be so good for foreigners but its okay for Pakistanis.
I highly recommend this cafe to you.
