Its story

The Kaşıkçı Bridge is one of the stone arch bridges in the Yanbolu Deresi valley south of Arsin. The bridge, about 23 meters long and 3.3 meters wide, was built using cut stone and rubble stone. Like most of Trabzon's arch bridges, it is thought to have been part of the village roads of the late Ottoman period; its exact construction date is unknown. The Sincan and Tandırlı bridges are also nearby on the same stream; these bridges can be visited together along the valley. Its elegant arch within the green valley setting attracts photographers.
