beutiful view and windy. Have car Parking. Traditional Food shop. Small beach area for sitting around and can swill in the lake.

Our tour guide suggested that we tour the area via a boat. It was as hot but it gave us a chance to see the bridge up close without walking on it. The fee was less than $10 and I had fun. Our boat man was efficient and friendly. He even gave us pointers as to where to shoot pictures.... More

Wow! Forget that it is the longest teak bridge in the world. If you focus on that you may be disappointed. Go late in the afternoon as there are no crowds (hardly any tourists) and the photo opportunities are better. Take your time and look all around you. We saw a monkey on a horse in the paddock which was... More

Take a rowing boat out to the middle of the bridge and look around at the surrounding landscape. Side by side we saw hand and mechanised ploughing. Water buffalo were wading across the rive and an ox cart slowly made its way across. It is really not the bridge that is the best attraction here but everything that is happening... More

Yes, this is technically the longest teak bridge in the world, and it's a pleasant enough walk over it (so long as you go early or late enough to avoid the worst of the heat), but really, it just feels like a big boardwalk and there's nothing particularly remarkable about the engineering.

Firstly I thought this was a great place to visit and offered variety to the pagodas. In the morning the light is not at its best and you are swamped by tour bus loads. I revisited after Inwa and it looked spectacular with thre dun in a better spot and plenty of long shots without people so you can enjoy... More

Be warned that the locals at U Bein bridge are very unfriendly. I saw a local beat to death a stray dog right in front of me and other tourists. That should tell you all you need to know about this so called "attraction". As soon as I arrived I got a bad impression, with the local boat men being... More

Possibly one of the best sunset shots in the world and the most photogenic bridge you'll ever see. It's possible to walk halfway and then get a rowing boat to pick you up. Hard to omit other tourists out of your photos, but patience is rewarded.

The bridge is more than 2 km long. Many people visit it to take photos of the surroundings. We took interesting photos of agricultural activities in the fields near by.
