The Pont du Gard is a remnants of a Roman aquaduct...for those who care: they started building it in 19 BC.
The is bridge is part of an aqueduct which transported water from spring near Uzes to Romen Names. An underground channel bridges and tunnels were engineered to carry the 4.4 million gallons of water daily. The three tiered structure was the tallest structure of the Roman empire.You can walk across a bridge/road that was built in the 1700's, hike on trails, kayak and swim under it.
On the way home we stopped for Pizza...
