Astounding Vespasianus Titus Tunnel – An Ancient Roman Engineering Marvel
AncientPages.com | August 30, 2018

A. Sutherland - AncientPages.com - One of ancient Roman engineering marvels is located in  Samandag. This astounding structure, known as Vespasianus Titus tunnel, is considered world's largest man-made tunnel.

The 1,380-meter-long tunnel was originally built (completely by man power)  as a water channel in the 2nd century. Today the channel is dry, but still worth to admire the ancient skills of the Roman builders and engineers.
