Tourism attraction of Khaju Bridge of Isfahan

Isfahan Tourist Attractions - Khaju Bridge



Arguably the finest of Esfahan’s bridges, Pol-e Khaju was built by Shah Abbas II in about 1650. It also doubles as a dam, and has always been as much a meeting place as a bearer of traffic. Its 110m length has two levels of terraced arcades, the lower containing locks regulating water flow. If you look hard, you can still see original paintings and tiles, and the remains of stone seats built for Shah Abbas II to sit on and admire the views. In the center, a pavilion was built exclusively for his pleasure.
