Over
Korte feiten: Three centuries of travelers have crossed this single-arch stone bridge spanning the rushing Coşandere stream. The bridge's hand-carved masonry blocks fit together without mortar, yet have withstood heavy rain and earthquakes that regularly shake the region.
Hoogtepunten: Stand at the center of the arch and look upstream: the bridge frames a perfect corridor of green where the stream disappears around a bend between steep, moss-covered cliffs. Local shepherds still lead their flocks across these same stones, continuing a tradition that stretches back hundreds of years.
Insidertips
- Wear sturdy shoes with good grip, as the mossy stones can be slippery after rain or early morning dew.
- For the best photo, walk about 50 meters downstream and shoot back toward the arch from stream level.
- Visit on a weekday to avoid the small crowds of weekend picnickers who gather near the stream banks.
- Bring a flashlight if you want to explore underneath the arch, where the stonework is most impressive.
