Xom Bong Bridge

Xom Bong Bridge is a steel structure spanning a waterway in Nha Trang, connecting the city center with the area along 2/4 Street near Po Nagar Tower. The elevated structure features reinforced support beams and includes a separate pedestrian pathway to handle crossing traffic.

French engineers built the original structure in 1925, but it was demolished in 1969 and replaced by a new elevated design. Major repairs took place in late 1985, with the bridge reopening on January 25, 1986, with improved heavy vehicle capacity.

The bridge's name connects to the reverence of Mother Goddess Thien Y Ân Nam at the adjacent Po Nagar Tower, where locals gather during traditional celebrations. It serves as an everyday crossing point that residents use when moving between different parts of the city.

The bridge accommodates both foot and vehicle traffic with a separate pathway for pedestrians to prevent congestion. If heavy traffic is expected, avoid peak commute times for a smoother crossing experience.

The bridge features a dual-pathway system separating foot and vehicle traffic, making it an unusual engineering solution for the city. This design keeps flows smooth and reflects how local infrastructure adapts to growing needs.
