Manhole Covers

A couple of years ago I visited Lisbon with my daughter. 
We went to the former Expo, wich was held in 1998. 
I spotted a manhole cover made especially for this event.

 Since that time I looked in cities for a manhole cover showing someting about the city.
Don't think I only look at the ground :)

And this one is in my hometown Nijmegen

On Pinterest I have a board of manhole covers.

    It's working! I like it when they make little artworks of everyday objects.

    I've seen really great manhole covers from Japan, but I didn't realize they were so elaborate in other parts of the world too. Love these. :)
