Image of Salmoral, not of the place itself.

The name comes from sal muria through an abundantive form meaning «area of saline soils». It corresponds to discharge zones where the water rises slowly from the aquifer and becomes mineralised, leaving salts on the surface and on the edges of the lagoons.
