Gheshlagh Bridge

Gheshlagh Bridge is located east of Sanandaj, the center of Iran’s Kurdistan province.

[1][2][3] This bridge on Gheshlagh river is a remnant of Safavids and Zandieh era.

The bridge was constructed by the order of Shah Safi of Persia, on the route from Sanandaj to Hamedan.

A stone inscription on the facing mountain reads the name of Gholam Hossein Khan who repaired the bridge.

On the top of the bridge there is a half a meter turret on each side of the passageway.
