"The idea of this style of water channel was brought to Portugal by the Moors during the time of al-Andalus."
We saw similar irrigation systems and hiked them in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. In addition to the irrigation systems in the Nile Valley, I look forward to seeing Pont du Gard in Southern France. That is the Roman Aqueduct over the Gard River.
These Levadas in Madeira are incredibly extensive. They have 1350 miles of them.
