Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

For 60 baht, you can stroll along a 150-meter-long glass walkway, 12 meters above Songkwai Road, and be rewarded with a breathtaking view of the confluence of the Khwae Yai and Khwae Noi rivers to form the Mae Klong. Mountains rise in the background, the city rooftops surround, and below, boats and floating restaurants bob on the water. It's more of a short 20-minute stop than a full-fledged excursion and is best combined with a walk through the pedestrian zone and the nearby night market.

Arrive late. Visitors who arrived in the last hour before closing had the place almost to themselves and could enjoy the sunset – exactly what you want. At midday, it's hot and crowded. At the entrance, you simply slip overshoes over your own shoes, so you can wear whatever you like. There's an elevator to the top, so your fitness level isn't a factor. At the other end are two viewing platforms with a maximum capacity of 10 and 15 people respectively. However, these aren't monitored, so be mindful of the number of people and avoid crowding.
