One of the gems of this historical city, Esfahan's bridges are a delight for the eye even though the river they span is dry.
The Khaju Bridge has a much more beautiful finishing than its far neighbour. Built by the famous Shah Abbas I, it boasts tilework to decorate all of its arches on both the lower and top level. Apart from just being a special bridge, it also functions as a dam and you can actually see the locks when you walk across the lower level. In the middle of the bridge a pavilion can be found which was for the mere pleasure of the Shah. Like the Si o Se bridge, there are several teahouses underneath this bridge.
