God's Bridge, Natural stone arch in Lilyache, Bulgaria

The limestone formation spans 25 meters in width, rises 20 meters high, and extends 100 meters over the Lilyashka Bara brook.

The site, designated as a natural monument in 1964, contains remains of a Roman fortress that served as a guard point during ancient times.

Local narratives tell of Roman Empress Helena spending time at the bridge, weaving on a golden loom that remains concealed within the caves.

Three routes lead to the bridge: from Vratsa-Oryahovo road, from Lilyache village center following eco path signs, or through fields between Lilyache and Chiren.

During summer months, when water levels decrease, frogs gather beneath the bridge, leading to its nickname Zhabokrek in Bulgarian, meaning Frogscroak.
