What country is this?

[–] infotainment 23 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Japan! It’s a stairway leading to the Toei Ōedo line, among the deepest subways into the world.

Best liminal space pic I've seen - nice!

Definitely down

Could be an asshole design with low-traction ramps instead of stairs, going up.

Nah if you zoom in, you can see a sign on the wall. If you were goinf up it would be a sign on the ceiling and that makes no sense

[–] Land_Strider 2 points 10 months ago

Ah, that detail probably clears it as going down.
