Subterranea Britannica: A guide to all things underground
Posted by Marlow Harris under Strange Places
Subterranea Britannica is an organization with a website that features all sorts of underground man-made structures and places. There is information about 100’s of underground railways, postoffices, caves, bunkers, stations, tunnels. It has an especially interesting photo tour of Chernobyl, but this one is real (remember Chernobyl motorcycle girl? Not a hoax exactly, but a sort of fanciful photo tour.)
Official tours are available of the area, and these tours are in closed cars with a geiger counter, to make sure visitors aren’t exposed to dangerous levels of radioactivity. The site has an incredible photo tour, including photos of the town before the accident.
