Description

Thanh Toan is a small tile roofed Japanese bridge located approximately 7 kilometers east of Hue. Constructed initially to facilitate better communication and transport between the two villages separated by the canal about 200 years ago, with funds provided by the wife of a high ranking mandarin in the court of emperor Le Hein Tong, this charming little bridge has quite an interesting story. Hearing of the charitable act performed by this lady the emperor freed the village from taxes and ordered an alter on the bridge to be built in memory of her in 1925. Although there isn’t much to do or see here, aside from walking over the pretty bridge, the ride to the Japanese Bridge by bike or motor bike will prove to be a pleasant experience.
