Sobre
Fatos rápidos: A vast labyrinth of 16 kilometers of underground passages runs under the site, candlelit tours make the cool, damp air feel cinematic. An oversized tower clock swaps the usual roles, the large hand marks the hours so river travelers can read time from far across the water.
Destaques: An odd clockwork quirk gives the big hand the job of hours and the little hand the minutes, a practical twist that helped river pilots spot the hour from a long distance. Exploring the 16 kilometers of vaulted galleries you can taste the metallic tang of damp stone, hear slow dripping echoes and find faded graffiti with initials and dates left by soldiers and masons.
