Abstract

The article is part of a project studying the architectural heritage of the Trans-Siberian Railway in the Khabarovsk Krai and is dedicated to the topic of “railway water” interpreted quite broadly – from the geopolitical concepts of Berlin geography professor Carl Ritter, who considered waterways to be a natural means of communication and transportation, to the analysis of water supply facilities at stations.
