visited with @richiemelon @Llama and a non member friend Phil. This was about giving Phil a tour from the south to north western side of the GRS and to tick off a couple of rooms I’ve yet to see. We came in at my favourite entrance then headed up rue de la voie verte and had a quick stop just...

天都城 - Heavenly capital city. Chinese early 2000s new town boom prompted development of plenty of new towns, and there was plenty of 'duplitecture' - some of very keen interest. Tianducheng (天都城) is a chinese newtown just outside the city of Hangzhou (a few hundred km away from Shanghai, in China...

History: Beneath Parc Monceau lies a treasure that is unknown to everyone: a disused turnaround loop that was once used by Line 3 trains when it terminated at Villiers station (from 1904 to 1910). In the 1930s, the loop was unironed, and a giant shelter was built there to house the CMP...

Visited with @Oxygen Thief. This trip was about getting the montsouris section of the catas ticked off, we first off started with a little trip up past st Anne and the human bomb room and then onwards. Next up we headed a little further north to les tours Eiffel, aka the Eiffel Towers room...

First post - sorry if I have no idea what I'm doing. You most likely know what the Paris Catacombs are, but basically they're the old quarry tunnels under the city that were used to hold Paris' dead. Remains from the overflowing cemeteries were thrown into these sprawling tunnels as Paris was...

Keeping this one as a general thread due to its brevity. Background: Paris Metro Line 7 is just one of 16 lines on the intricate Parisian metro system, with its first station opening to the public in March 1910. The line would then progressively be extended at varying points in the early 20th...

Visited with @Oxygen Thief @Ojay and @Llama. Thanks guys for a top weekend 👌. We visited the western side of the GRS on day one as I’ve only been to the east so it was nice to tick off the parts I hadn’t done before. The first port of call was ment to be the reservoir at montsouris but the water...

Visited with @richiemelon @L.Davvo and my non member brother in law. Continuing my obsession with the catacombs this trip was to tick off a few places i haven’t seen and to show my brother in law the usual tourist bits. So we started at the ram room which I didn’t take any photos of as was only...

Visited with @richiemelon @L.Davvo and a non member. Todays trip was to see a couple of things we didn’t have time to see on the last trip. We still didn’t get round half the stuff I wanted to see either but I was glad to see the bits I did see and it was nice to show 2 new people around too...

Visited with @richiemelon @Oxygen Thief and @Ojay. Thanks guys for an amazing weekend! Debated on whether this was the right place to post this report but technically it’s an underground stone quarry so il place it here. History (Pinched from @Stitch’s report) "The Catacombs of Paris are...
