It is an open-air monument. The aqueduct was built in Roman style in 1746 by the Turkish governor of Larnaca, Bekir Pasha, who financed it from his own sources to bring water to Larnaca from the river Tremithos, but also from other smaller springs, thus solving the serious problem of water shortage. For a large part of the route, which is about 10.5 km, the water was carried by a ditch, but in three different places where the ground was low 75 arches were built. The aqueduct was abandoned in 1939 and its operation was replaced by modern pipelines.<\/h6>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/edutourism-project.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/79-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1000\" width=\"512\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;The Larnaca District Archaeological Museum the exhibits tell the stories of the ancient communities and the habits of the people who lived in the city and district of Larnaca from the Aceramic Neolithic to the Roman period.<\/h6>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/edutourism-project.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/874-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1002\" width=\"512\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Pierides Museum &#8211; Bank of Cyprus Cultural Foundation is the oldest private museum in Cyprus and is housed in the ancestral home of the Pierides family &#8211; a colonial building dating back to 1825.
