There were more than eighty kilometers of ditches of Arab or Roman origin that irrigated the Ciezana orchard, but today there are barely two kilometers left that preserve their traditional mud structure. The Andelma canal, whose name means "water source" runs along the river behind the Museo Molino de Teodoro, an old flour mill. Its historical, archaeological and ethnographic value is undoubted and it also has great ecological value - here we can find ivy, sarsaparilla, elms and maidenhair.

In this area you will find what remains of the more than 80 kilometers of irrigation ditches that date back to the Arab and Roman era. Here we can find important vegetation typical of humid areas such as ivy, sarsaparilla, elm or maidenhair.
