While Segovia is a pretty town and the Aqueduct has a towering presence, I would not consider this a must see attraction. As an engineer , I was very impressed and regretted not reading up on the history and construction techniques used before visiting. The aqueduct is in excellent shape and you admire how precisely the rocks are laid to... More

The tall aqueduct visible from the main street itself is awe inspiring. But when you walk its length (it stretches to the right for quite a distance) and you read about it, and when you climb on top of it, you realise that this system was constructed to bring water from the mountains to the palace. You then marvel at... More

I have seen the picture, heard a lot about it and even playing games which allow you to build it. But nothing to compare to me myself standing right in front of it. The aqueduct is an impressive building which you may ask yourself how it was built without using machines and cements. The more you ask yourself the more... More

One of the most impressive civil engineering features I have ever seen. To think that this was built without the aid of modern machines or the use of mortar or cement 2000 years ago is humbling and puts the Aztec and Inca civil works in The Americas into true perspective. There is a good video explaining how the aquaduct was... More

The aqueduct is, in a way, hidden in the modern city, but it is not to be missed. With a little imagination you can see what it must have been like a long time ago.

The Roman Aqueduct here is a brilliant piece of ancient building work.No cement, no mortar, just held together by weight and gravity.You cannot miss this if you visit Segovia, it is the centre piece of the city.My tip here is to get a taxi to the Centro Histoirico at the top of the hill.The taxi will drop you outside the...

We went to Segovia mainly to see the Roman Aqueduct and we were not disappointed. You can see pictures and movies but there is just no way to compare to actually see it from the ground. It is well preserved and the whole walled old-town is something that you must experience in person.

One of the best preserved roman aqueducts I have ever seen, and right along side the city. I definitely has the wow factor.

Well-preserved Roman aqueduct, with viewing aspect at one end. It is possible to walk alongside it at ground level.
