Part of the radio show "around the world", dedicated to urban exploration, with your servant and the journalist Anne-Cecile. The program includes a visit to the fortress of Haut-Buc and a quarry.

First visit in the french comedy. It was very hard to light the room with our small LED light...

I shoot this photography by 17°F (-8°C). You can see the frost on the top of the roof. It was slicing and i was scared!

This photography shows you the inside of the aqueduct of the Gard bridge so called "pont du Gard".

In the quarries of the 16th in Paris, in the Palais de Chaillot. These quarries have been called "catacombs Trocadero" because a part was used in the Universal Exhibition of 1900 to show the public the geology of the basement. Height 55 feet 4 inches / 17 Metes 8693 (as printed on the wall)

We call these underground quarries "quarries of Chaillot". The size of these quarries was 12 acres originally, but now it remains only a small network of underground tunnels. At Expo 1900, we used a small portion of the underground galleries to present the work of mining and underground quarries. A prototype of the Channel Tunnel was also conducted.

Molitor the pool is a great pool complex abandoned. Designed by architect Lucien Pollet, the pool is famous for its art deco decor (stained glass, glass, balconies). In winter, the outdoor pool becomes the largest skating rink in Paris. Attributed to the pool Molitor paternity bikini, shortly after fashion shows in the pool enclosure.

The pool is a landmark of Paris. However, it closes August 31, 1989. It is listed in the inventory of historical monuments March 27, 1990. That's when the damage begins (tags, rave, pillage).

After 20 years of abandonment, the pool should reopen in 2012 after renovations.
