Living like Locals and Valens Aqueduct

Being a local is hard work. We are doing so much walking and trying to do so many things whilst in Istanbul. We took the local transport to the other side of the city to check out the Aqueduct.

The Valens Aqueduct (Aqueduct of the Grey Falcon) is a Roman construction which was the major water-providing system of the Eastern Roman capital of Constantinople (modern Istanbul, Turkey). Completed by Roman Emperor Valens in the late 4th century AD, it was maintained and used by the Byzantines and later the Ottomans, and remains one of the most important landmarks of the city.
