The aqueduct runs from the Alcantarillas estate to Tepeapulco and was built during the 16th century. 

To control the flow of water, the aqueduct varies in depth and width and culminates in an arcade at ground level that can rise up to 6 meters at the so-called Water Tank. 

The Water Tank, or Goddess of Water as it is called by the locals, is a unique building that serves as the endpoint of the aqueduct and has a capacity of ten cubic meters.
