THE BRIDGES OF ARTSAKH

Bridge of Tandzut (Chanakhchi)

The bridge (15th to 16th centuries) extends over the river Shamkor, 2.5 kilometres south-west of Astaf Village, in the territory of Tandzut (Chanakhchi) Village Site (in present-day Getabek District), at an altitude of 1,248 metres above sea level. A single-span structure of undressed stone and mortar, it was still preserved standing as of the 1980s.
