Historical Treasure gives ways to development!

The wooden pedestrian bridge links the modern Sangklaburi town with bank, hotels, bus station and internet cafes to Mon villages, Mon temple and Mon market on the western side. The bridge was built over Songkalia (Song Kalia or Songalia) river that drains into the lake at its northern tip.
