Bhumibol Bridge, Road bridge in Samut Prakan, Thailand.
The Bhumibol Bridge spans 2,700 meters across the Chao Phraya River with two main sections supported by towers that define the Bangkok skyline.
Construction of the bridge began in October 2001 and reached completion in November 2010, marking a milestone in Thai infrastructure development.
Named in honor of King Bhumibol Adulyadej, the bridge represents Thai engineering excellence and serves as a memorial to the monarch's legacy.
The bridge connects Phra Pradaeng district with major parts of Bangkok through dedicated lanes for vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians.
Local residents gather near the bridge during sunset hours to enjoy recreational activities while viewing cargo ships passing underneath.
