Malabadi Bridge

Malabadi Bridge is one of Southeastern Anatolia’s best-known historic bridges, distinguished by its broad stone arch and monumental structure reflecting Artuqid-era engineering near Silvan. The chambers on either side of the main arch and the stonework show that the bridge served not only as a crossing but also as a place for shelter and rest. It is a compelling stop on cultural routes through Diyarbakir’s eastern districts.
