Amarapura's U Bein Bridge, which stretches for three- quarters of a mile (1.2 km), is the world's longest teak footbridge and one of the most photographed spots in Myanmar. This impressive bridge is 150 years old and has been a major landmark of the region from the mid 19th century through the present. Busiest during mornings and evenings, it plays a big part in the daily life of locals who cross over Taungthaman Lake. On this beloved Burmese bridge, you can photograph the everyday life of villagers and monks with the stunning scenery as a back drop. Make sure to visit at sunrise or sunset when the views of the bridge and shimmering lake are at their most breath- taking.
