Fascinating Hand Dug Underground Complex and Gardens
These gardens are underground. Working alone during his spare time and using only hand tools, Baldasare Forestiere spent some 40 years sculpting an underground complex in Fresno, California consisting of a network of underground rooms, niches, courts, patios and passageways numbering almost 100. There's an underground garden home consisting of kitchen, nook, living room, 2 bedrooms, library, bath, fish pond, and aquarium, arches and stonework patterned after the catacombs of ancient Rome and an auto tunnel running the length of the gardens, almost 800 feet long!
The official Forestiere website is here. but clicking the link below takes you to the photos on a different site.
