An Eerie Adventure - Paris Catacombs

I’d heard that an unusual place to check out were the catacombs. I’d missed out on visiting the ones in Rome, & got there too late in Paris to see these last time I was here. But we headed out there, a bit unsure of what to expect, & lined up for an hour to get through the entrance.
After the experience of going deep inside the pyramid a Giza in Egypt, I realised quickly while descending the steps down into the bowels of Paris that I had become somewhat claustrophobic. Interesting – never been claustrophobic before. After the descent, we came upon millions of human skulls & bones all arranged in patterns along the tunnel walls. Built in the 18th century after residents complained about the lack of hygiene from local cemeteries, the bones of over 6 million Parisians were moved here deep underground.
It’s a very eerie, creepy experience walking around down there in a semi-dark environment. No wonder there were so many more guys than girls there.
