replying to @HeidiSiefkas @HeidiSiefkas Could do, I have only been to Toronto. I was so happy when I found them, because as soon as the sunset, the temperature dropped significantly. It was freezing. :) #TRLT

replying to @AltEliz @AltEliz It's a very interesting city - very diverse. I'm on the outskirts surrounded by layers of green trees (complete with monkeys at times). Hope you can return one day. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @CharlesMcCool A1: Houston downtown has a massive underground city. Built as its so hot. I don't have any photos of it handy though #trlt. It's why when you go downtown ypundont see anyone as they are underground

A1. Sometimes there’s stuff going on underground which you don’t even realise! Like the relatively new ‘Mail Rail’ in central London. https://t.co/WnV3pgUBOo #TRLT https://t.co/s9py07K7XB

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 I love it! I go back over and over again. There is a spot in the back where you can see water running to the Tiber. There are so few tourists that I'm often alone and I can sit far beneath Rome and imagine what life was like #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel When I was in Moscow I actually did a stations tour of my own, I tried to see as many as possible. They are proper works of art! #TRLT

replying to @travelhistory1 @travelhistory1 An excellent choice. I toured the catacombs of Rome - a different experience for sure. #TRLT

A1: One of my favourite underground attractions is the Ceuvo Pelo de Oro, in Cayo Santa Maria, Cuba. With it's resident bats, tarantulas and pythons it is memorable. Bone fragments from bats covered the top of rocks.

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @CharlesMcCool A1) When I think of an "Underground City" it reminds me of Vancouver's underground in the center of the downtown district. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel Yes. The architecture is pretty amazing #trlt

replying to @OanaRoua @OanaRoua @StuartMHurlbut @LindaPeters64 @CharlesMcCool Yes, Kiev, Moscow, St Petersburg, & Tashkent - which were the four largest cities in the USSR - all have impressive metro systems. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel Completely humbling. It's interesting how far less crowded the various catacombs around Rome are compared to Paris. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @OanaRoua @StuartMHurlbut @LindaPeters64 @CharlesMcCool Many of the metro stations had dual purpose as bomb shelters, including in the event of a nuclear strike, so that makes sense #trlt
