Iran-Historical 33-Bridge And Dried-up Zayandeh Rud River
An Iranian woman runs along the dried-up Zayandeh Rud river riverside, with a view of the Si-o-se-pol (33-Bridge) historical bridge in the background, in the historic city of Isfahan, Iran, on February 22, 2025. Zayandeh Rud is one of the main tourist attractions of Isfahan, which has completely dried up. Historical bridges such as 33-Bridge on the river may be damaged due to subsidence of the Zayandeh Rud riverbed if the drought continues. (Photo by Morteza Nikoubazl/NurPhoto)
