“That bridge looks ancient,” he murmured, squinting at the structure bathed in the afternoon sun. We’re standing before the Tung Ka Bridge. This isn’t the first bridge to grace this spot. It had a predecessor, a bridge known as Sarasin Bridge, built back in 1951. Imagine the excitement! The first bridge ever to connect Phuket Island to the mainland. The Sarasin Bridge, named after a prominent Thai politician, opened in 1967. It quickly became a lifeline, carrying people and goods across the Prak Pah Strait. Today, the Tung Ka Bridge stands as a testament to the island’s growth and the enduring need to connect.
