This Unesco World Heritage site at Pont Du Gard is a 2000 year old Roman Aquaduct, built to carry water to a town near by called Nimes in the Luberon Vallery in France.I must say this site is huge so if you go visit it make a day of it, its got the bridge, restaurants, hikes and a beautiful river running thru it for a swim to cool off. A very extensive hi tech museum that will take you at least 3 hours to get thru. A must to visit if you are in the area and all for 15 euros a carload!
Once again hard to believe that this was all built with human muscles and no power tools, quite something..
