Aqueduct of Segovia

Segóvia, Spain, the most marked and well-known landscape, not the "Ancient Roman Grand Aqueduct". During the ancient Roman period of Turazhen the Great (AD 53-117), in order to introduce the water of the Frio River 18 kilometers away into the city of Segolia, the canal was dug and aqueducts were built to attract water into the city. The aqueduct is 813 meters long and is made of dry khaki granite (without mortar), which is strong and unusual. The aqueduct is 813 meters long and 128 towering columns support double-layered 148 arches. The top of the sink is a canal, more than 30 meters above the ground. The initial section standard 30X30cm was repaired at the end of the 15th century and was converted into a cement tank around 1930, and has been maintained and used since then. The Da Aqueduct has become the city symbol of Segovia. The city emblem and flag of Segovia, and the image of the Da Aqueduct is in the center. In 1985, the ancient city of Segovia + ancient Roman Grand Aqueduct was listed as a World Heritage Site. The current Grand Aqueduct stands at the southern end of the core tourist area of Segovia; the south side is the parking lot (no vehicles can enter the core tourist area), and the north side is the Grand Plaza and the visitor center.

The bridge is less than five minutes walk from the long-distance bus station into the town. It is the most majestic and best preserved ancient Roman ruins on the Iberian peninsula and is the symbol of the location of Segovia, whose image is used on the emblem of Segovia. The building was built up to 28.5 meters, supported by 167 arches, and no bonding materials were used between the stones of the large aqueduct. Its water source is from the cold water river (Fuente Fría) 17 kilometers away, and the flow filters out some sand on the way to the castle (Segovia Alcázar) and Asogho Square (Plaza Azoguejo). The waterway bridge has been operating well for nearly two thousand years, and in the 15th and late 20th centuries, church bishops and local governments have repaired and maintained it. The waterway bridge is still guiding the flow of water to provide water for Segovia. There will be small gecko crawling between the stone seams.
