Mahat Thai Uthit bridge, Historic bridge in Ban Bat, Thailand.
The Mahat Thai Uthit Bridge spans across Khlong Maha Nak canal and connects Ratchadamnoen Avenue with Yaowarat Road in Bangkok's Chinatown district.
Built in 1914, this memorial bridge commemorates King Rama V through decorative elements featuring figures of weeping individuals, leading to its informal name Saphan Rong Hai.
The bridge incorporates both Thai and European architectural elements, with Italian designers Carlo Allegri and Vittorio Novi contributing to its structural composition.
Visitors can reach the bridge via the Khlong Saen Saep canal boat taxi service, which operates regular routes through Bangkok's waterway network.
The bridge maintains its original dimensions from 1914 without modern modifications, presenting an authentic example of early 20th-century Thai infrastructure.
