Ancient Salt Village Bo Kluea
Bo Kluea means “salt well” in Thai and the tiny village of the same name lays claim to two of these geologically unusual features. They’ve been mined for centuries, their salt was once exported to China but these days are the village’s main tourist attraction.
Buckets of water are hauled up from the wells, then transferred to giant wok-like bowls where the water is boiled over rendered fire pits until completely evaporated, leaving mounds of pure salt crystals.
The amount of salt obtained per litre is almost unbelievable. The pure white crystals are then transferred to wooden containers to complete the drying process. The evaporation process takes around five hours and is carried on around the clock. The two wells produce around 60 kilos of salt each per day.
