The former sewage works at Bubenec, now a museum, is very atmospheric. The impressive pumping machinery is still in working condition and, underground, the beautiful brick lined tunnels that once carried clean-up sewage to the river are dark, cool, mysterious and reverberate into the distance with a thousand drops of water.
