I love this photo! Amazing to think these huge structures are still scattered across Europe. Thanks for sharing : )

Great view of an amazing structure. Still standing after all those years, they sure knew their techniques.

É realmente um sítio muito bonito.
Mas não é do tempo dos Romanos... a sua construção foi iniciada no sec. XVI e terminada no sec. XVII, durante a dinastia Filipina, para o abastecimento de água ao Convento de Cristo.

@Marina: A correction has to be made, the construction dates from the XVI century. Sorry for the mistake. Thanks for all the nice comments!

Great shot of the aqueduct Joaobelard. I watched a feature on them on National Geographic a few months ago.
