The Çavus bridge crosses the Tabakhane stream in Aydın, the second bridge after the Tabakhane bridge. It is built of cut stone and has two pointed arches.
Two details are worth looking for: on the keystone of the left-hand arch there is a relief of an ox or bull's head, and on the right-hand side above the western approach there is a repair inscription. The bridge is opposite the metropolitan municipality building and is reached by city transport.
