About Aspendos Su Kemerleri

The aqueducts of Aspendos belong to the ancient city of Aspendos in Serik. According to the Culture Portal, they were built in the Roman Imperial period to meet the water needs of the city. Dated to the 2nd century AD, they are among the monumental structures of Aspendos. The Culture Portal page on Aspendos adds that the aqueduct is seen today as an arched bridge about one kilometre long running north to south, with a water pressure tower at each end. The portal lists the aqueducts at Belkıs in Serik.
