Our senses happily dulled from the night before, we wandered through Montparnasse; a high wall herded us along the sidewalk. <br><br> Suddenly, it broke into large gates: a cemetery lay beyond. We hesitated, but our curiosity was piqued, so we went in... Andrea http://www.sitebits.com/2008/rambling-about-montparnasse-cemetery.html Thu, 28 Feb 2008 19:00:00 EST No, not the Paris Mob. I'm talking about l'Empire de la Mort - The Catacombs! <br/><br/> The Catacombs span the entire city of <a href="http://www.sitebits.com/france/paris/">Paris</a>. The tunnels and passageways spiral in an incredible distance of 186 miles! Yet, the legal tourist area spans only about a mile. For a very low entrance fee (2.5&euro; 26 and under, 5&euro; 27+) you can explore the sectioned off tunnels for as long as you want. Just bring a jacket, it's 11 degrees C in there year round...
