The Rama VIII Bridge is an amazing feat of technical ingenuity and is considered one of the most technologically advanced bridges of its time. Spanning the breadth of the Chao Phraya River, the lifeline of Thailand, the bridge helps connect the two banks together enabling travellers to cross over much faster and easier than having to use smaller access bridges at narrower points in the river.
The city of Bangkok is very proud of its latest construction feat and has made sure it can be seen for miles around. Its main supports are predominantly cabling which allows it to garner a unique aesthetic which is pleasing to the eye.
For those wishing to marvel at this amazing feat of engineering, need only reside at a centrally located Bangkok hotel such as the Grand Millennium Sukhumvit Bangkok. This Sukhumvit hotel offers easy access to popular attractions and transport hubs making it the ideal choice.
