We'd heard about an old Roman aqueduct somewhere behind the area we were staying in Istanbul. So we went for a search yesterday. We couldn't find any sign posts which was unusual for this area but not unexpected as the Turks don't really play up the Roman part of their history. Maybe they are anti Constantinople, I dunno. That said we did visit an awesome Roman site which I'll blog about next....anyways we finally found a section of it, down a small lane behind some rundown and abandoned buildings.
This was the section we found and there wasn't much to it
so we walked on
and there it was, pretty damn cool in my opinion but then I love this stuff
