There are remains of two Roman aqueducts which supplied the Roman city of Toletum (modern Toledo) in Castile-La Mancha, Spain. The infrastructure carried water from various sources with the main reservoir located at Mazarambroz to the south of the city in the Montes de Toledo Comarca.
Agua Caliente Resort Casino Spa Rancho Mirage is a prized location for the savvy conference and meeting planner. The conference center boasts a modern, flexible 10,000 square-foot meeting space. For smaller events, the space can easily be converted into eight individual meeting rooms.
History[edit]
The Romans captured Toledo in 193 BC.[1] The aqueducts are difficult to date precisely. They seem to have been built in the 1st or 2nd centuries A.D.[2]
Remains[edit]
At Mazarambroz there is a ruined Roman dam, known as Alcantarilla, on the Guajaraz, a tributary of the Tagus. From Mazarambroz the water was conveyed via Layos (where there is a modern dam on the Guajaraz).[3]
Horno de Vidrio[edit]
A pressure drop tower, popularly known as the Horno de Vidrio, survives in the final section of the aqueduct.[4] Elsewhere the Romans used drop towers to harness water power for mills, but this structure functioned as a water energy dissipator. The water entered the tower via an arcade. The tower firstly facilitated the aqueduct a less steep path towards Toledo; secondly, it allowed the aqueduct to lose height without excessive slope.[4]
Aqueduct bridge[edit]

Only the base of the aqueduct bridge by which water entered Toledo survives. From its position above the Tagus gorge, it has been suggested the Romans used an inverted siphon to bring the water into the city. Such technology is known to have been used elsewhere in the Iberian Peninsula, for example Cádiz, although it is not directly evidenced at Toledo.[5]

Conservation[edit]
The remains of the hydraulic system are partly protected by a heritage designation (Bien de Interés Cultural).[2]

Welcome to the reopening of the historic Casino San Clemente, a seaside landmark hosting celebrations for more than 75 years. Judy Garland, Mickey Rooney, Dorothy Lamour, Cesar Romero and many other Hollywood celebrities enjoyed the big band sounds on our stage and dancing “under the stars” in the Spanish Village by the Sea.
Built in 1937 and modeled after the Casino (dance hall) on Catalina Island, this property is rich in local history. Our Casino featured many an evening of renown musical entertainment, live radio broadcasts, dinner theater and even the crowning of Miss San Clemente.
We welcome your private event in one or more of our four distinct areas of your choosing: intimate gatherings in the ocean view Patio of the Stars or the Spanish-flavored West Wing, as well as larger, entertainment driven events of up to 300 guests in the Grand Ballroom. With our rejuvenated Rock Garden, the Casino is quickly becoming a wedding venue favorite. And now with Ellie’s Table, our own ocean view artisan café, a rehearsal dinner or romantic brunch is only a few steps away.
We invite you to visit and explore the possibilities. Please consider the Casino San Clemente when planning your own history making.
