Gula Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Ancient bridge overlooking the Gula ravine, which before the construction of the modern bridge represented the only communication route for the local inhabitants.
There are various legends regarding the construction of the bridge, the best known and handed down one tells that in a distant past the devil would have made a pact by agreeing to build a passage for the inhabitants of the area, receiving in exchange the soul of whoever would be the first to cross the bridge. Unfortunately for the devil, the agreement had been made with a very cunning old man, who deceived the devil himself by making sure that the first to cross the bridge was a dog and not a man or a woman. Which is why the devil, mocked after having built the bridge in a single night by working with great commitment, would still wander around the ravine hoping to trap new victims.
