Mina Victoria
The Victoria Mine is an old salt extraction site within the Valley of the Moon. It's a stop on the scenic drive through the valley, visited just before reaching points like Tres Marías. It's not very impressive and, like the rest of the Valley of the Moon (due to its proximity to San Pedro), it's quite crowded.
The site itself is fairly basic. There's a small structure explaining how the salt extraction worked, and a sort of old mine area that you can see from above, but you can't go down or explore much. There are also a few spots where you can hear the salt cracking, but that's about it.
