Visit Planning

The bridge is 295 meters long and 14 meters wide, featuring 33 graceful arches made from brick and stone.
Si-o-se-pol is not just a bridge but also a historic dam (called a “band”) that was ingeniously designed to regulate the flow of the Zayandeh River, helping to control floods and irrigate nearby gardens. This dual function of bridging and water management showcases the advanced engineering skills of the Safavid era.

Additionally, the bridge’s 33 arches create a rhythmic visual harmony that’s both aesthetically pleasing and structurally sound, making it an architectural masterpiece admired worldwide.

Visiting Si-o-se-pol lets you experience Persian ingenuity in blending functionality with beauty — a hallmark of traditional Iranian architecture.
