Historic bridge in Chumphon Province

#Get a discount without relying on luck 🛣The railway bridge, Mae Nam Lang Suan, locals call it the curved bridge. When it was first built, it was in a European style by European craftsmen. 🔥When World War II broke out, Japan dropped bombs to cut off its military support, causing many bridges to collapse. 🇯🇵When the war ended, Japan lost the war, so the bridge was renovated to be usable as before. The bridges that were bombed were all rebuilt. The damaged ones were repaired to be usable as before. 🏞As for the railway bridge across the Mae Nam Lang Suan, it was a repair. Therefore, it has a unique feature that is unlike any other. This steel bridge has 2 different bridge spans because one of the bridges was damaged by the bombing. 🚆Therefore, only the damaged span was rebuilt. However, the same materials as in the past could not be found. Therefore, the 2 bridges, which were built in different eras, look different. They are half European (curved) and half Japanese (square). It is a unique identity. 🚟 Railway bridge, Lang Suan River: Khlong Lang Suan, Wang Takao Subdistrict, Lang Suan District, Chumphon Province ⛳ Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ejAaVt5Dh6H5xojF9 #Chumphon #TravelChumphon #ChumphonWorthVisiting
