30 mile long Roman Aqueduct. Went down about 13 inches per mile. From mountains to city of Nimes. Operated until 9th century. Had a roof over the aqueduct to keep the water clean and places to strain and clean the water. When it was no longer used, stones were taken to build other things. The lower part, was a road that was built later. Not used now. This is a park now. Very busy with visitors.
A house that was on the grounds. Was a hotel but now closed.
When a mason finished his job, he would sign the stone.
I think the dots are the number of areas this mason worked on.
Olive tree over 1000 years old.
