The Bund Tourist Tunnel, Shanghai

"A pedestrian transit tunnel crosses the Huangpu River from the Bund. Passengers board slow-moving powered vehicles which travel along the tunnel, with light effects projected onto the walls of the tunnel. These effects are marketed as a tourist attraction."

Thought this idea of practical transport solution come tourist attraction might be interesting for a few projects. For more photo's search Flickr, there a a few different light effects. It's a bit like Willy Wonka, you can watch it here.
