That's so cool. I used to go to Queretaro, Mexico a lot for business, there's a long one there, not as old, but pretty cool to see.

That’s cool too, 18th c date, a bit over 4K long, dunno if it’s still in use, but gravity fed so, should work even in a power failure. In Michigan, Grand Rapids and Wyoming (the city, which is actually older than the state of Wyoming) have water treatment out quite near Lake Michigan, and big buried pipelines pump their drinking water supply the 40 or so miles inland to the cities. Grand Rapids also (at least until recently, I may not be quite up to date, I noticed there’s construction going on when I drove by the other day) takes part of its supply from the Grand River.
