Info. Dyavolski most (Devil's Bridge) over the Arda river in Bulgaria

Dyavolski most (Devil's Bridge) in the Rhodope Mountains of southern Bulgaria was supposedly built by a Bulgarian stonemason named Dimitar, who was tasked with solving a bridge problem here in the early 1500s. Dimitar was hired to construct a bridge that wouldn't collapse into the rushing Arda river, as had all previous crossings in this strange spot.
