U Bein Bridge

[ArtphotoasiA]

The motorbike ride to visit surroundings of Mandalay in Amarapura, U Bein Bridge and the nearby monastery was exceptional.
Amarapura is a former capital of Myanmar, and now a township of Mandalay bounded by he Irrawaddy river.

U Bein Bridge, a teakwood bridge 1.2 kilometers long, a footbridge, the longest teak bridge in the world connecting two villages on the Irrawaddy river (actually in that area became a lake) and is really alive in the evening and in the morning when hundreds of people pass through in both directions.

That's quite the expedition you had there! I like the photo with the water buffalo for the juxtaposition with the architecture. But I think my favorite is the bottom shot for the impromptu pattern. Thanks for sharing these.
