The Hotel Club Blog at http://blog.hotelclub.com/ offers the latest news about travel and hotels, from all over the world. Hotel news from places all over the world such as London, Paris, and more are available at this blog. One of the recent posts features a guide to one of the lesser known destinations to explore in Paris: the Catacombs of Paris. This is a network of underground crypts and passages that used to be a limestone quarry.
After they had been depleted, the abandoned quarries were then utilized to store the remains of many of the people buried in churchyards and graveyards. The reason for this was that living people were having trouble with disease due to contamination from improperly buried remains, as well as mass graves. Thus, it was decided, back in the 18th century, to discreetly transfer the remains from graveyards and churchyards to the unused quarries under the city.
This is just one of the many interesting posts that appear on the Hotel Club Blog. Apart from these tourist attractions and travel destinations, hotels and airlines are also featured on the blog. This range of interesting articles will prove to be useful and informative for any traveler, and the Hotel Club Blog is a real must see!
