Visit 100 Years Old Wooden Bridge (Nakhon Ratchasima)

Presentation 100 Years Old Wooden Bridge

This 100-year-old wooden bridge that crosses rice paddies in Khon Buri district in Nakhon Ratchasima province is said to have been repaired and renovated over several generations for a century. That what gave it its name. Quite long (I didn't walk up to the end) it was built to make it easier to cross the fields once they were cultivated.

I have to admit that I was a little disappointed by the place. Partly because the bridge seemed poorly maintained when I went there in May 2022 (but maybe that's due to the 2 years of COVID) and partly because I wasn't blown away by the landscape it offers. However, I believe that when the rice is transplanted and during the following weeks, when the sky is reflected in the water of the rice fields, it remains a photogenic place, especially at sunrise and sunset when the light is grazing. At the beginning of May, when I was there, the rice was not far from being harvested, it was clearly not the best time to come. I think there are 2 harvests per year but vcan not tell you exactly which is the best month to come.
