Walk About Houston - Downtown Tunnels

Twenty feet beneath downtown Houston are six miles of tunnels. When it gets hot, we go below ground. The tunnels have restaurants and shops to enjoy. They link to many of the downtown buildings. Tourists explore the tunnels, but weekdays are the best days to get access to it all. You'll be able to get to the tunnels via many of the buildings' lobbies.
I always get lost because the tunnels do not follow a grid pattern or any pattern.
If you travel to Houston, go beneath the city and explore.

There are maps everywhere when you get lost.

What’s the tunnel called?

[@walkabouthouston5476]

Overall, it's known as the Houston tunnel system. The different sections are represented by colors. The video started in the blue section - Main Street, then the older section was green - Mckinney. The place I got lost was the red section - downtown loop. The last section was purple, which eventually led to the museum district. A lot of the tunnels are named for the surface streets. I hope that helps. There are tours of the tunnel system.

This is scary

[@walkabouthouston5476]

It is safe, and it's all private property, but it looks scary. A horror movie could be filmed down there.
