Summary

Description

Bozdoğan Aqueduct (also known as Valens Aqueduct) was built around the late Roman and early Byzantine period. Although the precise date is uncertain, it was probably completed during the reign of Roman emperor Valens at the end of the 4th century. One of the main conduits, that provided water to Constantinople in the middle ages, the aqueduct was renovated by several sultans in the Ottoman Period and retained its important function throughout this time. Today, 921 meters of the original 971-meter-long structure still stand.

Valens Akuadükü olarak da bilinen Bozdoğan Su Kemeri, bir geç Roma-erken Bizans dönemi yapısıdır. 4. yüzyılda, Roma imparatoru Valens döneminde yapıldığı tahmin edilmektedir. Orta Çağ’da İstanbul’un su ihtiyacının çoğunu karşılayan kemer, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu süresince -başta Fatih Sultan Mehmet olmak üzere- birçok padişah devrinde onarılarak bu işlevini sürdürmüştür. Orijinal uzunluğu 971 metre olan yapının 921 metresi hâlen ayaktadır.
