Scotland in the United Kingdom
The Edinburgh Vaults in Scotland are an underground labyrinth that lurks eerily beneath the surface of the city. Interestingly enough, this network of tunnels was built underneath Edinburgh’s South Bridge in the 1700’s, initially intended just to be used as a storage facility for merchants. As needs have changed over time, it has been used for a range of different things. At some point between its creation and the 20th century, it was sealed off in what officials at the time thought would be permanently. Much to the delight of British historians, it was accidentally rediscovered again in the 1980’s.
