Lisbon - Arco das Amoreiras

The last part of the Aqueduto das Águas follows the Rua das Amoreiras. The arch of the Aqueduto das Águas Livres, which spans the road and which was also designed by Carlos Mardel, looks very spectacular. It was constructed in 1748 in the shape of a Roman triumphal arch. At this point the water pipeline turns off at a right angle to the Mae d'Agua.
