OH, THOSE ROMANS!

About the same time Jesus was walking on earth, the Romans were busy building this impressive 20 mile aqueduct bridge into the town of Segovia in Spain. At it's highest point entering the city, it rises to nearly 100 feet with 44 double arches, all without mortar and still standing today!
Aside from the aqueduct / bridge, old town Segovia is really sweet featuring another impressive Cathedral and the Alcazar (castle)...

















Oh, those Segovians...
