Taşköprü

Taşköprü is a stone bridge in Adana that spans 310 meters across the Seyhan River and features 14 visible arches. The structure is built entirely from stone blocks and displays the classic arch design typical of Roman construction methods.

The bridge was built in Roman times between 117 and 137 during the reign of Emperor Hadrian. Over the centuries, emperors and caliphs carried out repairs that kept the structure intact and functional.

The bridge joins the two halves of Adana and remains a place where locals and visitors gather throughout the day. It plays a natural role in how the city brings people together across the river.

You can walk across the bridge at any time, and there are parking areas nearby along with pathways leading to other historic sites. The location makes it easy to explore central Adana and connect with nearby attractions.

The structure has remained in use for over 2000 years and still carries pedestrians across the river daily. Few bridges anywhere can claim to have served the same purpose for so long without losing their original function.
