2 of 20 Monkey Bridges (Vietnam)
This is surely not a modern day bridge. Crossing over the Mekong Delta, this monkey bridge, like any other scattered across Vietnam, was handmade from just one piece of bamboo log. It has become a Vietnamese traditional symbol that got its name from the silly way people have to position their bodies while crossing it. These bridges are generally difficult and dangerous for those who are not used to them, but locals actually use these bridges all the time and they are known to carry 20–50 kg while they cross the bridge. We guess it’s fair to say that you shouldn’t try this at home.
