If the longest tunnel in in the world is the seikan tunnel where is it how long is it?
It is located beneath the Tsugaru Strait in Japan, and is 53.85 KM (33.46 MI) long. 23.3 KM (14.5 MI) is located under the seabed. It opened on March 13, 1988. It not only is the longest tunnel, it also is the deepest train tunnel in the wold.

Is the Channel Tunnel or in short the Chunnel the longest tunnel in the world?
Alas, no. There are several longer. The longest of all, the Paijanne water tunnel in Finland, is a water supply tunnel so probably doesn't count.

However, those crafty Swiss are currently at work under the Alps, and the Gotthard Base tunnel (also a standard gauge railway) will be 35.5 miles long, a clear winner.
