Arapsu Bridge, Roman bridge in Antalya, Turkey.

The Arapsu Bridge spans across the Arapsu stream with a single stone arch design, located approximately 5 kilometers west of Antalya's center.

The stone bridge dates back to the 3rd century AD during the Roman period and stands at the base of an ancient mound connected to the Greek colony of Olbia.

The construction methods and architectural features of the Arapsu Bridge demonstrate the advanced engineering techniques employed by Roman builders in ancient Anatolia.

The bridge structure remains partially submerged due to a modern weir constructed about 100 meters downstream, affecting visibility of its original masonry details.

The debate about the bridge's architecture continues between scholars, with some suggesting a post-Roman origin based on its pointed arch design.
