"Labyrinths, Crypts, Catacombs and More"




Coober Pedy, Australia: This small town in the middle of nowhere, Australia, is home to some of the strangest houses on Earth. A combination of climactic conditions and the existence of opal mining in the region have literally driven the residents underground. Everything from residences to churches are carved out of the ground as the above images show. The place is something of a tourist attraction, with underground hotels as well as a golf course above ground - though golf is played at night due to the regional heat! Check out the other Labyrinths, Cypts, and Catacombs with pictures and videos. Via: Web Urbanist
