Lonely Planet review for Underground Passages

Prepare to crouch down, don a hard hat and possibly get spooked in what is the only system of its kind open to the public in the country. These medieval, vaulted Underground Passages were built to house pipes bringing fresh water to the city. Unlike modern utility companies, the authorities opted to have permanent access for repairs, rather than dig up the streets each time - genius. Guides lead you through the network, telling tales of ghosts, escape routes and cholera.

The last tour is an hour before closing.
