Aqueducts

Another leftover from the Byzantine period in Selçuk is the Aqueduct. This Byzantine water line coming east towards Ayasuluk Hill can be seen at the train station and at two places along the highway. This restored aqueduct is the breeding ground to that Selçuk symbol, the stork. Another aqueduct, built by Gaius Sextus Pollio in the Augustan period is 6 km down the road towards Aydin.
