Kalau kamu sedang di istanbul dan lewat di bawah Aqueduct of Valens, sebenarnya kamu lagi lihat sisa dari sistem air raksasa yang dulu jadi “penopang hidup” Konstantinopel.😮 Airnya nggak datang dari dekat kota, tapi dari wilayah Thrace, daerah perbukitan di barat laut, Dari sana, air dikumpulkan dari mata air alami, lalu dialirkan lewat jaringan saluran yang panjangnya ratusan kilometer, Nah, aqueduct ini adalah bagian yang “mengangkat” air itu supaya bisa masuk ke dalam kota.💧 Kebayang nggak,

A major storm recently hit Pompeii, covering the ancient streets with rushing water. Yet one detail still stands out: the city was designed with elevated sidewalks, stepping stones and an advanced drainage system that helped manage heavy rainfall nearly 2,000 years ago. The Roman Empire is long gone, but its engineering still leaves people speechless. Roma Aeterna. #Pompeii #AncientRome #RomanEngineering #RomanEmpire #History
