Tha-Pai WWII Memorial Bridge

The WWII Memorial Bridge is approximately 8 km from Pai. The original bridge here was built by the occupying Japanese who found the Pai River a testing obstacle in their progress to occupy Burma. The steel truss bridge is not the original bridge but was in use for many years before construction of the concrete road bridge beside it. The bridge was assembled in its current position rather more recently from one that had been in situ at Chiang Mai.
