Kamares Aqueduct, Larnaca, Cyprus


The Old Aqueduct, with its 33 arches, known as "The Kamares", stands outside the town on the way to Limassol. It was built in Roman style in 1745 to carry water from a source about 6 miles south of Larnaka (Tremithos River) into the town. The aqueduct is illuminated at night, adding to it's engineered beauty.
