Taskopru is a stone bridge spanning the Seyhan River in Adana. It is the oldest bridge in the world that is still operational. Built somewhere around 120-135 AD by the Romans, the bridge has always been a vital transportation link leading to extensive care and repairs to keep it in operation.
The bridge has a length of 310 meters and has 21 arches with 15 primary arches and six small relieving arches. In 2007, the bridge was closed to motor traffic and has since then been an important site to the city residents where most of the cultural and social functions are held.
