Khoda Afarin Bridges are two Khudafarin arch bridges which are located at the border of Azerbaijan and Iran connecting the northern and southern banks of the Aras River.  (The 11-span bridge was restored in the 13th century during the Ilkhanate era due to the movement of huge masses of people in that period. The northern bank of Aras used to be a battlefield between the Ilkhanate and Golden Horde, and therefore there was a need to transport numerous troops.)
