The Segovia Aqueduct is an impressive architectural structure that dates back to the 1st century AD. C. and was built by the Romans during the occupation of Hispania. Its main function was to supply water to the city of Segovia, transporting it from the mountains to the urban center. The aqueduct carries the waters of the Fuenfría spring, located in the mountains about 17 kilometers from the city, to the center of Segovia. The water is collected in a cistern called El Caserón and then taken through an ashlar canal to a second tower known as Casa de Aguas. After traveling more than 15 km, you arrive at the city.
The Segovia Aqueduct is a heraldic symbol of the city and one of the most impressive works that the Romans left in their vast empire. If you ever have the opportunity to visit, I recommend that you do so. It's really amazing! 😊🏛️

The Segovia aqueduct, one of the most emblematic architectural symbols of Spain, was used to transport water from the Guadarrama mountain range to the city. It is a true Roman jewel that deserves to be appreciated from all its angles.

Segovia
A walk around Segovia seeing the gorgeous Aqueduct, Cathederal and Alcazar. All are really impressive really. The castle looks like a Disney fairy tale castle and the inside is great. Great views and the displays are superb and there is even a good artillery museum. More gorgeous stuff from Spain. Nice to be surrounded by snow capped peaks too ❤️.

The Aqueduct is a particularly fantastic eye catching construction and is the fulcrum of the city really surrounded by bars, cafes, bus stops and shops. Nice to have a free site to visit for a change.

World Heritage Site
No 7. Old Town of Segovia and its Aqueduct including the Cathedral and Alcazar.
