Sarasin Bridge — Attraction in Phuket Province

Sarasin Bridge Viewpoint is the gateway to Phuket connected between Phang Nga and Phuket. It is also a good spot of seeing sunset.

Sarasin Bridge was the first bridge that linked Phuket Island to Phang Nga Province on mainland Thailand. Named after a Thai-Chinese politician (the Sarasin family has been a wealthy clan involved in Thailand business and politics since the 19th century), this 700-metre bridge was built in 1967 to replace the ferry which was then the only connection to the mainland. Tourism development and the increase of road traffic urged authorities to build a larger bridge right next to Sarasin Bridge. Thepkasattri Bridge was completed in 2011.

Sarasin Bridge was then transformed into a tourist attraction – a pedestrian bridge where you can enjoy the sunset and sea breeze.

The idea of keeping the Sarasin Bridge as a tourist attraction may sound strange, but it's quite a popular destination for many locals in the evening.

Saphan Sarasin สะพานสารสิน (as it's known in Thai) is an interesting strolling destination. Its central part has 2 towers linked by a platform, offering a viewpoint over the Andaman Sea to the west and Phang Nga Bay to the east. Many ornate lamps line the walkway, making it especially beautiful at dusk.

Address: Thepkrasatree Road, Mai Khao, Thalang, Phuket...

Few people know, but the bridge that a large number of vehicles move across every day from the island to the mainland is not the Sarasin Bridge - this bridge was built in 2011. The Sarasin Bridge is a smaller bridge that is located nearby and has recently become a local landmark. This is a good place to admire the sun setting over the horizon at sunset. This is one of the favorite places of local residents who gather here in the evenings, walk or fish. There are not many tourists here and you can enjoy the beautiful view of the sea separating the mainland and the island and take beautiful photos. Behind the bridge there is a kind of fair, where there are a large number of shops that sell: fruits, souvenirs, clothes and other attributes typical for this type of trading platforms.
