Not every data center looks boring, as evident by the Pionen White Mountains bunker. It is located 100 feet below ground and has 16 inch thick metal doors.

Located in Stockholm, Sweden, it was used by Sweden's Civil Defense in 1970 but was decommissioned and converted into a data center in 2008 by Internet Service Provider Bahnhof.

The conversion took two years to blast out 141,000 cubic feet it needed to fit all their backup generators and server racks.

It also has its own greenhouses, simulated daylight, a huge saltwater fish tank and two huge submarine engines that act as backup generators.
