Shahi Bridge

Shahi Bridge is a stone arch crossing over a river in Polur, built from stone and mortar with features characteristic of Pahlavi-era design. The construction displays the barrel vault structure that defines this regional bridge style.

The bridge was built in the early 2000s as part of infrastructure development in Amol County. It follows decades of Iranian tradition in stone bridge construction.

The structure demonstrates traditional Iranian stonework methods passed down through generations. Visitors can observe the careful stone craftsmanship and how the arches fit together.

The bridge connects local communities and handles both vehicle and foot traffic. Visitors should watch for uneven stone surfaces and plan to visit on clear days to see the structure from both riverbanks.

The bridge blends modern traffic needs with ancient stone methods, where local craftspeople made traditional techniques compatible with contemporary engineering standards. This approach allowed historical construction methods to continue in modern infrastructure projects.
