El Deposito

Museo El Deposito is a National Historical Commission museum built over the Spanish-era underground reservoir that supplied Manila's water from 1882 to 1929. Students learn how the Carriedo waterworks brought clean water to the city, see original artefacts including an old hydrant, use the virtual reality room and then descend into part of the brick-vaulted reservoir itself. It suits upper elementary to senior high and is free of charge.
