Phra Pin-klao Bridge, River crossing in Rattanakosin Island, Thailand
The Phra Pin-klao Bridge extends 658 meters across the Chao Phraya River, featuring six traffic lanes and connecting Rattanakosin Island with Thonburi district.
Construction of the bridge began in August 1971, with Prime Minister Thanom Kittikachorn inaugurating the structure on September 24, 1973.
The bridge bears the name of Prince Pinklao, who held the position of vice-king of Siam from 1851 to 1866.
Located near the Grand Palace, the bridge maintains a clearance of 11.5 meters below and includes dedicated paths for pedestrians crossing the river.
The construction required the removal of three existing structures: the Chalerm Sawan 58 Bridge and two pedestrian crossings.
