Delal Bridge

Delal bridge, also known as Zakho Bridge or Pira Delal, is an ancient bridge over the Khabur river in the town of Zakho, in Iraq. The bridge is about 115 meters long and 16 meters high. The bridge is believed to have been first built during the Roman era, while the present structure appears to be from the Abbasid era.
