   Looking at the first photo I though “Hydrop plant dams are the Roman aqueducts of the 20th century.” Though they are not carrying water, but passing it through themselves, still, the sight of such a large structure leaves an impression. Third Rome, duh.
   
   Ah, there is it. Pic 2 reminds of the place in Half-Life 2, where you must open a gateway. Here it is also on the left. The towers overlooking the passageway are in place too.
   
   Pic. 4 made me remember the railway bridge, that you need to cross underneath. Though such ladders can be seen anywhere. But still, it all can be seen there, following the canals.
