Practical information about Sangkhlaburi Mon Bridge
In July 2013, after a very bad weather, the bridge has partially collapsed but it is still a very interesting and photogenic place. Our photos were taken after. A floating bamboo bridge was built at the feet of the wooden bridge a few weeks later in 6 days thanks to an extraordinary mobilization of the Thai and Mon communites who showed their unity. The bridge was repaired and reopen to the public on 18th October 2014.
