Azud de Rovella

Water lore is a major part of Valencian popular culture, and the eight acequías (irrigation canals) that were diverted from the Río Turia to keep the market gardens watered are legendary. At this dam-like structure you can see where (before the river's course was changed) the last of them, the Rovella, diverted water from the main flow.
