Chang Rong Si bridge, Historic bridge in Phra Nakhon district, Thailand.
The Chang Rong Si bridge spans the Khlong Khu Mueang Doem canal, connecting Bamrung Mueang Road with Atsadang Road at the Saphan Chang Rong Si intersection.
Originally constructed as a wooden structure for elephants returning from war, the bridge underwent restoration in 1910 under the direction of Prince Damrong Rajanubhab.
The bridge features decorative dog head sculptures at its ends, representing the Chinese zodiac year of the dog and reflecting Thai-Chinese cultural connections.
Located behind the Ministry of Defense and near the Ministry of Interior, the bridge serves as a vital transportation link managed by the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration.
The name Saphan Chang Rong Si translates to elephants bridge at rice mill, referencing its position near a historic rice processing facility.
