The Tunnel Of Love

Updated July 18, 2019
The most awesome railway tunnel in the world might be a tree-covered track in Ukraine called Tunnel of Love.
The Tunnel of Love is part of a 7 km (4.3 mi) long industrial railway between a plywood factory and the small town of Klevan in Ukraine. Along the route, the railway splits towards a military base, and during the Soviet era, the trees were allowed to grow to hide military transports.[1] This resulted in a romantic "tunnel" of leaves, where the trees have been shaped by the passing trains. The Tunnel of Love is a popular tourist attraction, but visitors have to watch out for both factory trains and, according to Google reviews, tonnes of mosquitoes.
