U Bain Bridge (Bagan)

One of the symbols of Myanmar is the famous wooden bridge U Bein, which is entirely made of teak (local tree) and is the longest wooden bridge in the world.

In many pictures and pictures of Myanmar, you can see this bridge. Tourists say that the snake of the bridge extending into the distance is an extraordinary sight. The teak bridge over Lake Tauntome Ke.

Wu Bain Bridge would definitely be a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but for political reasons, UNESCO does not take any site in Myanmar under its protection and control. However, this does not detract from the uniqueness of the bridge: it has a length of 1,200 meters and leads across the lake to another ancient Burmese capital - Amarapura, on the site of which is now a large monastery.

Each teak pillar of the bridge is numbered and is almost a national treasure, and the bridge itself becomes the most picturesque at sunset. The sunset and the bridge against its background is most convenient to watch from a boat, of which there are many, as well as boaters, who for a reasonable fee will take you to the middle of the lake, where the view is most picturesque and impressive.
