Torre de Abraham Reservoir, embalse en el río Bullaque, península ibérica
Torre de Abraham Reservoir is a concrete dam on the Bullaque River fed by water from the Bullaque and Milagro rivers. The water is stored here to regulate supply during dry periods and help maintain natural river flow for the surrounding environment.
The dam was built in 1997 to manage water in the Guadiana region and control flooding. The site takes its name from an old watchtower dating to the 12th century that once served to protect local settlements from intruders.
The area around the reservoir is easy to access with opportunities for fishing, walking, and picnicking in open spaces and green areas. The best time to visit is on sunny days when paths are clear and visibility is good throughout the surroundings.
The exact geographic coordinates of this reservoir coincide with those of another dam in New Zealand, making for a rare geographic coincidence. This unusual fact is often overlooked by visitors who might find such geographic connections intriguing.
