Taşköprü (Beyşehir)

Taşköprü (translated to Stone bridge) is a combined regulator dam and bridge located in Beyşehir district of Konya Province, central Turkey. It was constructed as a flood barrier as part of the irrigational on the ground of a ruined 8–10 arched bridge between 1908 and 1914. Its completion was delayed due to repeated flooding at the Lake Beyşehir. The dam was commissioned by Albanian Ottoman Grand Vizier Mehmed Ferid Pasha of Vlorë (in office 1903–1908), (Turkish: Avlonyalı Ferid Paşa). Regulated water draining off the lake contributed to the rise of the formerly droughty and quaggy Konya Plain into a "granary".
