Ghari Bridge.

The Ghari Bridges are two historical bridges over Quri River, in Tabriz, Iran. Because of their age, currently both of the bridges have been closed to traffic. According to some scholars, there was an older bridge with the same name at the same location on the river, that was destroyed during construction of these two bridges.

The word Ghari means "elder woman" in Azeri Turkish languages.
