Penkalas Bridge
The Penkalas Bridge is a Roman bridge over the Penkalas, a small tributary of the Rhyndakos, in Aezani, Asia Minor. The 2nd-century AD structure was once one of four ancient bridges in Aezani and is assumed to have been the most important crossing-point due to its central location in the vicinity of the Zeus temple and the direct access it provided to the Roman road to Cotyaeum. According to reports by European travellers, the ancient parapet remained in use as late as 1829, having been replaced today by an iron railing.
