The Byzantine aquaducts which start in the east of the Gate of Persecution of the St John’s Church and which are intact within the town and particularly in the vicinity of the train station continue along the Şirince gorge and go northward. They conveyed the drinking water which was supplied from the springs in the east of the Pranga district between Belevi and Selçuk to the Byzantine period settlement on the Ayasuluk hill and the St John’s Church, which was a pilgrimage centre in the Medieval times.
