[Edit this paragraph] Maze Legend The underground phantom of the Paris Opera House is very famous, and the story of the phantom takes place in the Paris Opera House. This opera house is full of mystery because of its complex structure and long history. The theater has 25,365,438+0 doors, 7,593 keys and 6 miles of underground tunnels. The entire opera house covers an area of three hectares and is seven stories high. Moreover, what is even more amazing is that on the lowest floor of the Opera House, there is a reservoir with a volume of 130663.55 cubic feet and a depth of 6 meters. If the audience goes to the bottom of the basement, they can see its dark and sticky water surface. Every ten years or so, the Opera House will drain the water here and replace it with clean water. It is said that this pool was formed by accidentally touching groundwater when building an opera house and excavating the basement. Charles Canil, the architect at that time, spent eight months pumping all the water dry, but in order to make the foundation of the building more solid, the walls and floors of the basement he designed adopted double waterproof structures. After that, he filled the last layer with water, so that the water could fill the cracks in the wall and make it stronger. The original structure was designed by accident, but under the basements, a pool suddenly appeared, which actually created flashing lights and strange boats for the film. Anyway, if we study the architectural structure of Paris Opera House and its legendary history, it will be a long (and interesting) topic. It is true that you can never uncover its mystery without seeing it with your own eyes.
