Driving from Filiates to Foiniki, before entering the village right we find the bridge in Pussy. It is a monotone bridge, sponsorship of N. Binaki, built to join the villages of Finiki and Sideris, over the Bogazi River. It is now off the river bed. The name “Pussies” of the area is rumored to come from the concept of the Turkish word “Pus” that translates either as a “layer of dry pine needles formed under the tree”, as the pine trees are dominated, either as a fog. It is a partially embedded bridge in good condition (altitude: 65, apron opening: 6, 00 m, arc height: 1, 80 m, deck length: 12.60 m, deck width: 2.70 m.).
