It was surprisingly awesome! A little hidden gem in Prague :) It was only the 5 of us who went there, and we couldn't speak czech, plus a czech guy, and our tour guide was so awesome that he held the tour in both czech and english for us.

محطّة معالجة مياه الصرف القديمة في براغ ليست متحفاً تقليدياً، بل رحلة مُصاغة بعناية إلى قلب الحداثة الصناعية تحت المدينة، حيث تكشف المساحات تحت الأرض عن عبقرية الهندسة وإدارة المياه في مطلع القرن العشرين. بُنيت بين 1901 و1906 ضمن مشروع شبكة الصرف الحديثة التي صمّمها المهندس البريطاني ويليام هيرلاين ليندلي، وتبقى اليوم المثال الأوروبي الوحيد المحفوظ والمفتوح للزيارة لمحطّة ميكانيكية من ذلك العصر. في جولة بصحبة مرشد، تتقاطع العمارة التقنية مع تاريخ براغ الفكري كمدينة تُحسن تحويل البنية التحتية إلى ذاكرة ثقافية حيّة.
