Azua: Natural wells

Click the following pictures to enlarge them!
Azua, although a dry province, has a lot of subterranean water-wells. They put a large pipe in the ground through which the water is going up. This well is near Pueblo Viejo, but you can find them everywhere. (2001)

The same well, where the pump is ready to irrigate the land. (2001)

Another natural water-well, near Pueblo Viejo too. (2001)

This is an oil-well, "el petroleo de Higüerito", where the oil is going up of itself. You can reach it on the road to Peralta by asking for the exit. (2002)

Higüerito 2. (2002)

To reach the oil-well we had to walk a long way, so we put some stones together to find our way back! (2002)

Another oil-well, "Maleno", you can reach it too on the way to Peralta. (2002)
