  • A water inlet of Sogi Power Plant. Water is rushing around it. A windlass seen at the left was used to open and close the gate of a settling basin in the plant.
  • The area around the water inlet has become a park. Some tourist can be seen. A gear of the hand-operated windlass remains reserved.
