I've uncovered some fascinating info about Mejia underground city:

It's actually located in Midyat, Turkey, and is believed to be one of the largest underground cities in the world ¹.

- It was possibly built by early Christians to escape Roman persecution ¹.
- Could house up to 60-70,000 people with schools, food supplies, and even underground farming ¹.
- Has 8 levels, with only 4 open to visitors, and maintains a consistent, cool temperature year-round ¹.

Would you like to know more about its history or architecture?
