The Mağlova Aqueduct, built between 1555 and 1562 by the renowned Ottoman architect Mimar Sinan, spans the Alibey Creek valley in Istanbul and stands as a masterwork of Ottoman engineering. Commissioned by Suleiman the Magnificent, the structure exemplifies the architectural sophistication of the Ottoman imperial period. Located in the Sultangazi district near Cebeci village, the aqueduct's soaring arches continue to demonstrate the technical ingenuity that characterized Sinan's legacy of public works and infrastructure projects.
