One reason is to maintain the image of historic buildings and distinctive architecture of European higher, thus able to attract international tourists to come to a country that is beginning to develop this.

In the cities Buda and Pest are also not found in the gutter, because the channel has been prepared with boiled water under the road. We also can drink water that is channeled into apartments directly from tap water; here we can easily enjoy cooking gas flow directly into the kitchen apartment.
