A2: Occasionally a travel experience leaves you in awe. One of those times was visiting the incredible Serepeum of Saqqara in Egypt It's more than 3000 years old and my guide and I were the only 2 people inside. Here he examines a granite sarcophagus of a Sacred Apis Bull. #TRLT


A2: I have had the chance to visit an electric power plant in the north of Italy, which was dug deep inside a mountain. It was incredible! I wasn't allowed to take photos inside though due to the risk of sparks, just at the entrance #TRLT

A2 These holes may not look like much, but they a part of a koriz, an underground water system built by Alexander the Great to bring water from the Nuratau Mountains to the Nurata Fortress 2,300 years ago. Epic ancient engineering. #TRLT

A2: Some feats of engineering take us underground.
One of my favourites is the Othello Quintette Tunnels, near Hope B.C. Canada. Built through solid granite, they are valued for the metaphoric bedrock geology & railway history, as part of the Kettle Valley Railway.

A2: Nero's Golden House (Domus Aureau) had over 150 rooms & covered a huge expanse of Rome. It's an ongoing archaeological site, but is open for limited visits. It's spectacular, as were the recently reopened Houses of Livia & Augustus #TRLT https://t.co/yyL8wmIA69

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel It is amazing. You have to book tickets in advance since it's a working site. They offer tours in various languages with archaeologists. My blog has details to book if you're in Rome: https://t.co/9YBINHuWP6 #TRLT
