We Built This City:Paris . It too describes the mining operations, building canals, the walls.

I do expect the DVD to be more "touristy". Don't have time to check it today. Will do.

It is really hollow underground.

Actually, many people feel grateful about all these underground holes, because those stopped developers (especially during the '70s building frenzy) from destroying old neighborhoods and building high-rise buildings instead . The fear that heavy buildings would cause some underground collapsing saved many of Gitte's favourite quartiers
