Yes, what many Parisians consider a fable is actually true. There is a man-made lake beneath the Paris Opera House as was featured in "The Phantom of the Opera". The foundation was laid in the 1860's. Engineers struggled to drain the water from the earth and simply decided to impound it in a reservoir that has a depth of 12 feet and is 60 yards long. Several fish make their home there and are regularly fed by Opera House staff.
