U-Bein Bridge

The world's longest teak footbridge delicately bends 1300yd crosswise over shallow Taungthaman Lake.

In the dry season it feels strangely high and for the most part, crosses occasional vegetable patio nurseries.

Be that as it may, after the late spring downpours, the region turns into a major lake and water laps just beneath the floorboards.

Only a couple of the 1086 shafts on which it stands have been supplanted by concrete supports.

An incredible time to visit the scaffold is soon after dawn when several villagers and priests drive forward and backward crosswise over it.

The light is frequently best around an hour prior to nightfall, however, by then there will be a considerable measure of visitors and knickknack dealers.

In any case, while the scaffold gets extremely occupied, it once in a while feels like a business gauntlet.
