About

The bridge, which was restored during the reign of Sultan Abdülaziz, consists of two sections; the first section comprises 17 arches, some round and some pointed.

The second section, on the other hand, consists of two arches with rounded arches. Although water does not flow beneath the second section, it is still in use because it serves as a continuation of the first bridge. The bridge is 326.35 meters long and 4.95 meters wide. The largest arch span is 7.90 meters. The entire bridge was constructed using cut stone.
