Catacombs of Moscow
"According to Mikhailov there are about six levels under Moscow, and in some places as many as 12, including old sewer systems, fountain foundations, and sloping drainage tunnels entangled in the depths."
These depths house families, ex-cons, torture chambers fallen into disuse, the occasional human skull, and, possibly, the lost medieval library of Tsar Ivan the Terrible.
