Canadian Emergency Government Headquarters: Diefenbunker
Ladies and gentlemen!
Here are some pictures of my visit of the Diefenbunker in Carp, a suburb of Ottawa. The four-story bunker was built between 1959 and 1962 to protect the members of the Canadian government in the event of a nuclear war. After the decline of the Cold War, the use of the bunker was discontinued in 1994 and it became a museum. I visited it with a good friend of mine last Saturday.
