Gemarrin Bridge

Gemarrin Bridge is a stone structure crossing the Wadi Zeidi with three side-by-side arches, all made from local basalt. The structure extends roughly 25 meters in length and shows the typical Roman construction method of that period.

The structure was built in the 3rd or 4th century AD as part of the Roman road system connecting important settlements in the Arabia province. The bridge played a central role in trade traffic flowing through this region.

The bridge shows how Romans used local materials to create construction methods that visitors can still see today. Local builders may have copied these techniques for their own projects later on.

The original pavement of smoothed basalt is still visible today and shows how Romans built roads. The bridge sits in a good location to understand the old trade route that passed here.

The structure retains its arch skeleton with exposed vault tops, showing how Romans built in layers. This exposed construction allows visitors to see the inner levels and techniques that would otherwise stay hidden.
