Experience a whimsical weekend in Binh Duong with the Broken Bridge
Situated 68 km from Saigon center and over 35 km from Thu Dau Mot along DT741 towards Binh Phuoc through Phu Giao district, the Broken Bridge runs parallel to Phuoc Hoa Bridge. Constructed by the French in 1925-1926, the Broken Bridge stands out as a 'new toe' in Binh Duong, notably featured in the film Tèo Em, with actor Thái Hòa performing a mesmerizing 'flying scooter' stunt over the bridge, attracting the pursuit of young enthusiasts.
Locating the bridge is a breeze—just pay attention when you approach Phuoc Hoa Bridge. About 100 meters away on the right, you'll spot a small temple. Turn right, follow the narrow road for approximately 800 meters—enough for a 4-seater car. You'll be pleasantly surprised by the road through the shaded and beautiful rubber forest. If you get lost or take a wrong turn, don't fret—simply ask the friendly locals, and they'll guide you with warmth and kindness.
Amidst the serene ambiance of the rubber forest, who would have imagined that the Broken Bridge, with its vintage appearance adorned with black moss and green grass, has witnessed the historical ebbs and flows during momentous wartime struggles.
With its collapsed middle section, the lush surroundings, and the cool red flow of the Be River, provide the perfect canvas for you to create 'Instagrammable' moments—ranging from vintage shots to scenic landscapes and even profound expressions. Even the bridge's support pillars serve as the best 'props' to add extra flair to your photos.
Visiting the Broken Bridge just for Instagram-worthy shots might feel incomplete; why not elevate your weekend by combining it with a picnic? Lay out a blanket under the tall rubber trees, set up some food, and enjoy relaxing moments with friends, melting away the stresses of everyday life.
Quick tip:
Exercise caution when capturing images on the bridge and its supports.
Remember to maintain cleanliness after camping.
Ensure safety while driving on provincial roads and carry all necessary documents.
