Must-visit places in Sangkhlaburi

Sangkhlaburi Mon Bridge

สะพานมอญ

My opinion :

starstarstarstarstar

400 meters long wooden bridge built by the Mon. It is the longest wooden bridge in Thailand. A very photogenic place, especially at sunset and in the early morning when it is embedded in the mist.

Phutthakhaya Chedi

เจดีย์ทอง

My opinion :

Large square golden chedi whose style is inspired by Mahabodhi in Bodhgaya in India, it is one of the two Mon temples that are in Wangkha,the Mon part of Sangkhlaburi on the other side of the wooden bridge.
