The \u201cRego do boi\u201d waterway is about 2.5 kilometers long and is fed by the brook of Bustelo; it is one of the first diversions between two river basins, leading the water from the Ardena basin to the basin of the Aguieiras stream. Alvarenga mills career dates from the eighteenth century and is located in the municipality of Arouca, being unique in the country, both by the number of mills, as well as the waterway driving water from one valley to another. The use of cascading for the water flow is a major work of engineering from local people. Currently only two of these mills are in operation, but a good part has undergone restoration work. The verdant parish of Alvarenga owes much to this work since, after serving the mills career, water is used for irrigation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13557,"template":"","lines_points_of_interest":[1095],"class_list":["post-15357","points_of_interest","type-points_of_interest","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","lines_points_of_interest-line-m-montemuro"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/montanhasmagicas.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/points_of_interest\/15357","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/montanhasmagicas.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/points_of_interest"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/montanhasmagicas.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/points_of_interest"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/montanhasmagicas.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13557"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/montanhasmagicas.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15357"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"lines_points_of_interest","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/montanhasmagicas.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lines_points_of_interest?post=15357"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
