Built for Shah Abbas II as both a bridge and dam over the Zayandeh River, the Khaju Bridge is Esfahan's most beautiful — a two-storey structure of pavilions, arched niches and teahouses where on hot summer evenings Iranians gather beneath the cool arches to socialize, sing and lounge. It's simultaneously a piece of infrastructure and a beloved city living room.
