Fateh Kadal, also known as the Old Fateh Kadal or Iron bridge, is a historically important Bridge in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, India. The name "Fateh Kadal" translates to Fateh meaning "Victory" and Kadal meaning "Bridge". It refers to both the bridge which spans the Jhelum River and the surrounding area in the city core.
