The Aqueduct of the Free Waters is a historic aqueduct in the city of Lisbon.
It is one of
the most remarkable examples of 18th-century Portuguese engineering. The
main course of
the aqueduct covers 18 kms, but the whole network of canals extends
through nearly 58 kms.
The project was paid for by a special sales tax on beef, olive oil, wine,
and other products.
Construction of the aqueduct started in 1731. A total of 35 arches crosses
the valley,
covering 941 m. It is considered a masterpiece of engineering in the Baroque
period.
The 'Mother of the Water' reservoir of Amoreiras, the largest of the water
reservoirs, was
finished in 1834.
リスボンで市民の足となっているのはメトロ(地下鉄）と近距離地点を繋ぐ通勤、郊外型電車である。
地下鉄は機能的で速度も速く短時間に市内での移動が可能である。近郊電車は地上を走行する
のでリスボンの市街地の様子を見るためにはよい。ポルトガル鉄道のカンポライド駅近くには、
あまり知られていないが、18世紀に肉、オリーブオイルやワインなどに課せられた付加税によって
建設された歴史的構築物、水道橋を間近に見ることが出来る。
