Ko Paen Bamboo Bridge – Cambodia
The Ko Paen Bamboo Bridge can’t even stay up the entire year, but it’s the only thing connecting Kampong Cham and Ko Paen. Residents use about 50,000 bamboo sticks to make it, and it spans 3,300 feet. They then remove it in May to reuse it next December.

Monkey Bridges – Vietnam
The monkey bridge is a popular type in Vietnam. They’re designed for crossing rivers, but they don’t have modern features like metal and concrete. They’re just handmade with bamboo or tree logs that are tied together and precariously balanced.
