Can Tho Bridge
Cầu Cần Thơ
A cable-stayed bridge over the Hau River, opened in 2010 with a 550-meter main span, a modern landmark of the Mekong Delta.
The Can Tho Bridge is about 2.75 km long with a 550-meter main span, and when it opened it was the cable-stayed bridge with the longest main span in Southeast Asia. It ended the city's reliance on ferries to Vinh Long. Visitors usually see it from Mekong tour boats or along the Hau River bank, and at night its lights reflect on the water, which is spectacular. The bridge carries motorway traffic and is not suitable for stopping on foot. You can photograph it from the riverside road east of Ninh Kieu Wharf or from a tour boat.
