    A wonderful place to see sunset and moon in Mandalay. This beautiful bridge is the longest teak wood bridge in the world. It is also very famous location in Myanmar that you have to go. You can see a lot of local people go there for hanging out with their friends or family. I am really keen on the image of the monks walking on this bridge at sunset, very very impressive.

    Must-visit place when you are at Mandalay. You’d better walk till the end of bridge to feel the beauty of Taung Tha Man lake instead of taking photos at beginning of bridge and going backπŸ˜ƒ.

    U-Bein Bridge is an awe-inspiring marvel in Myanmar. The world's longest teak bridge, it gracefully spans Taungthaman Lake. A serene sunset walk along its creaky planks offers unparalleled views and a chance to connect with local life as fishermen and villagers pass by in their traditional boats. It's a testament to both architectural ingenuity and cultural significance, making it a must-visit gem for travelers seeking a unique experience in Myanmar.

    Longest teak wood bridge in the world. 1.2 kilometers, almost a mile (1.6 kilometers). Definitely worth stopping by if you are in the area. Can get quite busy, especially during sunset. The locals sell little birds they catch and display in cages which is terrible for the little creatures. It's so sad, but we got one to set it free. I guess that's why they keep catching them... Not really sure what to do, get one and encourage or ignore?

    An amazing experience to go here for sunset. take enough time to prepare, its very full of tourists. its a small bridge that is very long - it is worth it going all the way to make some nice pictures.

    U Bein Bridge is a crossing that spans the Taungthaman Lake near Amarapura in Myanmar. The 1.2-kilometre bridge was built around 1850 and is believed to be the oldest and longest teakwood bridge in the world.

    Really cool to see the world's longest wood bridge. Not too crowded because we went about sunset time. Sunset is gorgeous.

    Oct 29 2023. My first time visiting the bridge and it legit broke. Morale of the story, never walk on something old while it's crowded.

    U-Bein Bridge is the longest teakwood bridge in the world. There is many travelers at sunset time but still peaceful and gorgeous sunset.

    Old bridge crossing the lake, made by teak wood, i dont know how much it cost if its build in tye present time. Visit here during the sunset will be ao nice. You can try to wlak over the bridge or you can try a boat ride underneath the bridge. But my fav is standing a side of the bridge during sunset and taking picture of people in silouette against the sunset.

    This place is unique and special. This bridge is very popular for tourists from local foreigners. You should visit at the morning sunrise or evening sunset.

    The place is beautiful but it is crowded with so many people when it is full moon day or some holidays. The best time to visit there is evening about 4 to 6 PM.

    Really nice place to see sunset and sunrise in Amarapura city Mandalay, Myanmar.

  • 5/5 Ho Ngoc T. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a long bridge by wooden, it takes time to walk a long the bridge, a lot of people come here at sunset time to take picture, for good picture you need to hire a boat for 10,000kys/person, more people more cheaper!

  • 3/5 Laura S. 4 years ago on Google
    It’s a great building and I wanted to see it. In my opinion it was to crowded during sunset, maybe depends on the season but everything was full of busses. If you want the pictures you can go there, maybe take pictures in front of the bridge because on the bridge it is super crowded. I would not go during sunset.

  • 5/5 Andy K. 4 years ago on Google
    Stunning views for sunset ! If you walk to the end of the bridge there is a bar that is nice to kickback and watch but if you just want the perfect picture go below the bridge in the center roughly. There is many visitors/tourists but it does not affect the views so go enjoy !

    Really beautiful and goes all the way across to the other side. Too many children begging and harassing me though.

    Good place to see the sunset. It's a little crowded and the surrounding are full of trash but the views are very nice.
