White bridge or Arches Bridge is the first suspension bridge of Iran, the fourth steel suspended bridge in all around the world built less than 50 years after the establishment and opening of Brooklyn Bridge (the first steel bridge of the world), which was built by a German engineer family on the Karoon beautiful river with two concrete arches of 12 and 20 m on a concrete foundation in the centre of Ahvaz in 1315.
This bridge which is known as the white bridge is the second bridge of Ahvaz with two big steel arches and the symbol of Ahvaz now. Arches Bridge was the first traffic and pedestrian bridge which has made a connection between old and new Ahvaz.
