Elegant underpass
An underground pedestrian tunnel was built a few years ago to allow people to get into the Quezon Memorial Circle without having to risk life and limb crossing the eight-lane road that surrounds the park. Named the Belmonte Underpass after the current mayor, it is well-lit and elegant enough to serve as an exhibition hall. Which is exactly what Quezon City Hall did with its photo exhibit of "Quezon City in the Making." What should have taken me a couple of minutes to cross took half an hour, but I really enjoyed it.

It looks great! It is really elegant! Nice shot!
That looks really nice. Clean, stylish and I really like the drop ceiling. It breaks up the monotony you find in most tunnels.
that's a clean and elegant underpass indeed, Hilda. futuristic looking too. I wish we had that here in Bandung.
Great shot, perspective. Really leads the eye down the corridor.
On another note, I'm curious. How do you say underpass in tagalog?
Ang ganda at ang linis! Me restroom din ba?
Wow, 8 lanes is a lot to cross even if you were on rollerskates. Time or Safety, hmm. Great shot, Hilda
very well maintained..looks really elegant
Wow, ang linis. Great shot here Hilda.
Really cool!
My goodness, it's so modern and clean. I'm amazed by the underpass, the exhibit is just an added extra!
When I hear the word underpass, this is not what comes to mind. What a great idea!
Wow, so clean and elegant!!! Have you ever experienced underpassages in Europe? I'd rather risk my life crossing the busy road!!!All the best. Ciao. A.
Puts our ones to shame. Grotty concrete and grafitti this is not!
If only all tunnels were like this. Looks great and maybe is nice and cool too...
That is so wonderful and so unlike many tunnels which are often dark, dreary and dangerous.
Hello Hilda!
Have a wonderful International Women`s Day, a nice Sunday okay!
Kind Regards
God bless you

You described it well. it is elegant! But I get confused everytime I go under one of these. Tourist lang kasi hehehe
This is a great shot

Hey... love the way the pic is composed. Spent a long time at your blog. Its an absolutely brilliant pictorial of Manila!!

I love the architecture! I bet keeping that floor so shiny takes a lot of work.
