    Shaharah Bridge is a famous seventeenth-century stone arch bridge spanning a precipitous 200-meter deep mountain gorge between Jebel Al-Emir and Jebel Faish in northern Yemen. Built to withstand Ottoman sieges, this spectacular feat of engineering is surrounded by legends of ghost armies, mountain jinn, and vanished defenders. This legendary mountain pass attracts adventurers and historians.
