Valens (Bozdoğan) Aqueduct
The aqueduct is in İstanbul Saraçhane District. The construction started
during the period of Constantinius the 1ST (306-337), and it was
completed in 378, during the period of Emperor Valens. It used to
tranfer the drinking water coming from Alibeyköy to the city. It is made
of two rows of ducts. While it used to have a length of 1 km, now only a
part of 800 m. survives. |
