Make sure to check how hot a pipe is before you touch it - there’s a couple of pipes down here that will burn you. These tunnels are a maze, so make sure you stay close and don’t go wandering off. Our first stop is this way, to a mural called Faith. It’s part of a series of paintings by an artist called…
