- Salinas de Maras - In Maras, visitors can explore the renowned salt mines, also known as “salt pans.” These consist of approximately 3,000 small wells, each with an average area of about 5 m². During the dry season, the wells are filled every three days with salty water from a natural spring located at the top. As the water evaporates, the salt gradually solidifies (50 min.)
