This is the second part of the day. You find the first part here: Driving to Mae Hong Son<\/a>. We wanted to visit the long bamboo bridge Su Tong Pae and did not find the place. After we took some pictures at another temple we drove back to a village and asked the locals. They did point out the right temple for us.

\nThe name of the bridge translates as ‘successful prayer’ in the Tai Yai language. It does link the temple and the village of Kung Mai Saak. Build very simple out of bamboo and supported by wood to lift it over the rice fields. The villagers constructed the bamboo bridge so the monks have it easier to come to town and go back to their temple.
