Abstract
This chapter discusses the role of architectural design in presenting Iran’s water heritage to the public. Drawing on the Yazd qanat visitor centre, it examines strategies of spatial narrative and sensory experience. The authors argue that architecture can deepen public understanding of historic infrastructure. Recommendations are offered for similar centres in other regions.
