Football inside the salt mine

by Dmitry Tonkacheev, IGEM RAS, Moscow, Russian Federation

After the long working day, severe Ukranian miners did not go to the surface because they have a possibility to play football inside the shaft at depth 288 meters below ground level.

There is also another usage of this place as a hall for concerts of classical music. A lot of conductors note splendid acoustic properties of this hall.

The size of this hall is 130*17*27 m.
