Joui Bridge

پل جویی

A small Safavid bridge between the Si-o-se-pol and Khaju bridges that was once reserved for the royal court; a water channel runs down the middle of the deck, and few visitors come, making it good for photos.

Joui Bridge was built in 1665 during the reign of Abbas II and linked the royal gardens on either side of the river, originally for royal use only. The bridge is about 147 meters long, with 21 arches, and a water channel is set into the middle of the deck. 'Joui' means 'channel' or 'water course'. It is less famous than the Si-o-se-pol and Khaju bridges, but it is quieter, so you can stop by while walking along the river between those two well-known landmarks. It is open all day.
