Architecture in Segovia

During a trip to Spain a few years ago, I took this picture of the aqueduct in Segovia. For those who don't know what an aqueduct is, it was used to transport water from one side of a city to another many centuries ago. This particular structure is recognized as the symbol of Segovia and remains completely intact as one of the best-preserved ancient monuments in Spain. Apparently, the aqueduct has been kept in such great condition that it could be used today (even though I'm sure no one would want to, indoor plumbing is more convenient anyways).
