The under ground community of Coober Pedy

Many of us know that one of the largest Opal mines in the world lies in Australia.

What most of us have yet to learn is that in the desert of Australia is the mining community of Coober Pedy.
This area in Australia has been mined for Opal for the last 100 years. Coober Pedy holds more than Opals, a whole community of underground houses and restaurants. There is even an underground church for miners and their family to attend. Learn more about this amazing place by clicking the link below.
