La Union Mines

Decided today to visit the Mines at La Union, one is now open to the public with English guide on Tuesday and Thursday 10am and 12pm. Booking needed if you want an English speaking guide.
In the car park we viewed a short film again one for the Spanish and one for the English speakers, there were eight of us and about 28 Spanish.

A little train took us up the hill side to the opening of the tunnel, and as we were a small group we taken in first and had extra time, the guide was really good and explained everything to us. Google La Union Mines to read more.

At the entrance we had to wear hairnets and hard hats! Before setting off to the different levels of the mine, with a slight sulphur smell. The whole experience took about 90 mins and was well worth it.
