33 Pol or Allah-Verdi Khan is one of the 33 bridges of Isfahan, Iran. It is highly ranked as being one of the most famous examples of Safavid bridge design.

Commissioned in 1602 by Shah Abbas I from his chancellor Allahverdi Khan Undiladze, an Iranian ethnic Georgian, it consists of two layers of 33 arches (hence the Persian name, Sioseh, which means 33). There is a larger base plank at the start of the bridge where the river Zayandeh rud flows into it, with a mounted tea house there.
