Every City Needs One of These Water Cathedrals

For people suffering on hot days on the urban heat island, there's often little respite from the roasting other than ducking into a store with A/C.

But inhabitants of Santiago have a much cooler option. Down in the city center is an outlandish hive of inverted cones of white fabric that constantly leak water; stand under the pristine sheets, and you'll receive a cold shower. Squeeze the dampened drapery and you've got a nice drink of fresh agua going on.
