You might not be able to tell, but this is an old escaltor with real wooden stairs! It was a long way down to the Maastunnel.
Here's how it looks for pedestrians; cyclists have a separate tunnel. I didn't walk the entire span, but I found it quite interesting. There is a similar tunnel in Hamburg that I visited not so long ago. For more treasures, take a look here. Photo taken in May 2016.
Love that first shot, Hal! Great perspective. I'd be tempted to walk the stairs but then that would just prolong my agony !
ReplyDeleteThat looks like quite a steep way down!
ReplyDeleteI don't know how it is now but that escalator had everybody with a bike to take. Now think on the bikes riding in holland and take the rush hour. You have got the picture? Terrible.
ReplyDeleteBy the way. Do I see a guy with a bike on that escalator? So I broke my brake cables.
ReplyDelete@sc there were a lot of cyclists, but it wasn't so full. Probably b/c it was the weekend.
ReplyDeleteAlmost makes me dizzy. Nice perspective.
