Besleti Bridge
The Besleti Bridge, also known as the Queen Tamar Bridge, is a medieval
arched stone bridge at Sukhumi, Georgia's breakaway republic of
Abkhazia. The bridge spans the small mountain River Besletka, and dates
back to the late 12th century.
This single-arch bridge is one of the most illustrative examples of the
medieval bridge design popular during the reign of Tamar of Georgia
(1184-1213) who is traditionally credited to have commissioned the
construction of the Besleti bridge.
