Pont du Gard

Hello Everybody!
I didn't know what to write about, but fortunately my dad helped me :)
He remind me the beautiful Roman Aqueduct - Pont du Gard:


Name of this aqueduct comes from: Pont (fr) - bridge and the name of the river - Gard.
In English we might say: The Bridge over the Gard River ;)
Well.. I prefer French name.. What about you?

But I heve to say something about the aqueduct...
It is a three-storeyed arcade. It's 49 meters high and 27meters wide. Particular arcades are build by different  number of archs:
  • 6 archs in down storey
  • 11 in middle storey
  • 35 in the highest storey

That's all
See you later :*
