İncekaya Aqueduct, Ottoman aqueduct in Safranbolu, Turkey.

The İncekaya Aqueduct spans 110 meters across the Tokatlı Canyon with six stone arches rising 60 meters above the valley floor.

The grand vizier of the Ottoman Empire, Safranbolulu Izzet Mehmet Pasha, ordered the construction of this water supply system between 1794 and 1798.

The aqueduct demonstrates Ottoman engineering techniques through its natural stone construction and architectural design with one main arch supported by five auxiliary passages.

The structure stands at an altitude of 600 meters above sea level and measures between 1.10 and 2.20 meters in width along its path.

This eighteenth-century water bridge continues to mark the landscape of Karabük Province as a testament to Ottoman infrastructure development.
