The Aqueduct of Kavala, also known as Kamares, is an impressive historical structure located in the city of Kavala, Greece. This architectural marvel dates back to the Roman and Byzantine periods, and it was extensively restored during the Ottoman era in the 16th century under the rule of Suleiman the Magnificent. The aqueduct stands as a striking landmark with its series of arches spanning a length of approximately 280 meters and reaching a height of up to 25 meters. Originally built to supply water to the ancient city of Philippi, the aqueduct is a testament to the advanced engineering skills of its time.
