Aspendos Aqueduct
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: One of pictures taken from several positions (shown in gps in many cases) of several parts of the aqueduct. In this case the picture was taken from atop the aqueduct, as paret of it could be walked upon. The stretch ended at a stream, but went on at the other side (and undoubtedly some columns of the aqueduct must have been demolished there).
The aqueduct is the best preserved Roman aqueduct in Asia Minor, it brought water from the mountains in the north. I am afraid I saw3 only part of it, and so will you. At two points (I think we see just one) the pressure of the water was such that it raised the water in towers to a level 30 meters higher, from the top of which it flowed on. |
