The great stairway

The famous Australian Drains!

Rare in Europe, these drains are everywhere under the australian cities. These underground drains carry out the canalization of rain water, completely separated from sewer networks.

Many of these drains are present below each city, each one having its nickname, story and features. Different shapes, sizes, entry & exit...

They are popular meeting, expression and exploration places for the Australian Cave Clan, THE urban exploration organization. The photos shown here depict the variety of these underground canalizations.
