Spanning the majestic Chao Phraya River, the Rama VIII Bridge is more than just a traffic solution—it’s a modern engineering marvel and a tribute to King Ananda Mahidol (Rama VIII). Connecting Wisut Kasat Road (Phra Nakhon) and Arun Amarin Road (Thonburi), this asymmetrical cable-stayed bridge is Thailand’s first and only of its kind—and the fifth longest in the world!
