Paris Tunnels and Catacombs

Yesterday, Erik directed us to a great site for Urban Explorers called infiltration.org. If you love climbing around abandoned buildings, exploring city tunnels, or otherwise creeping around in places you shouldn't be, you should spend a couple hours getting lost on infiltration.org.

After doing so myself, I wanted to point you towards one page in particular that really caught my attention. Yesterday, we also posted a Photo of the Day featuring a clandestine venture into the catacombs below Paris. As you might suspect, there is an entire article on infiltration.org that details a mesmerizing journey through the many, many kilometers of tunnels buried under the capital of France. From sewer, to bunkers, to burial chambers and everything in-between, this article sucked me right in with a fascinating account that ranks right up there with classic adventure novels of the past.

Ah, Paris. It's not just for lovers anymore.
