Descend 20 meters beneath Paris into dim, bone-lined tunnels where six million souls rest in solemn, artful stacks. What began as limestone quarries became an underground ossuary in the 18th century, and the resulting labyrinth is one of the most haunting, contemplative spaces on Earth: cool, quiet, and utterly unforgettable.
