Sad pictures of people living in the sewers of Romenia

Share it Please
Once dubbed 'The Paris of the East', Romanian capital Bucharest is a city teeming with ornate architecture, Baroque palaces and tree-lined boulevards. But beneath its mansions and squares lies a second city that no tourist gets to see - an underground kingdom of outcasts and drug addicts living in the city's vast network of sewers. Here, everyone is HIV-positive and a quarter have TB, yet they are left to rot in the darkness, huddling against heating pipes and snorting glue to stay warm. At the head of this city of vice is one man, named Bruce Lee from his street-fighting days. A father, mentor and drug-dealer to all, he brings safety - and a bottomless supply of glue - to the 'sewer children' of Bucharest, many of whom have lived there since the fall of Communism two decades ago.
