Description: The Devil's Bridge (Dyavolski most) over the Arda River, situated in a narrow gorge of Arda River near Ardino, in the Rhodope Mountains, Bulgaria. It was build in 15th century as a part of the ancient road connecting the lowlands of Thrace with the north Aegean Sea coast. The bridge is the largest of its kind in the Rhodopes, long 56 m and wide 3,5 m, with three arches, small semicircular arches and breakwaters to control the water level.
