Valens Aqueduct

Sometimes one just happens upon something interesting.  That was the case when Mike and I were walking to a music shop.  (The one I bought the ney flute from)  All of a sudden there was this old section of wall with a bunch of arches so I grabbed my camera at shot a few pictures.


It turns out we discovered the Valens Aqueduct.  The wall is a remnant of an old Roman aqueduct from the 4th century AD Constantinople (not Istanbul).




I mean the 4th century?  That is pretty cool!
