Evening Cruise along the Chao Praya River

So Elvis Presley isn't really dead! He's singing on a dinner cruise boat in Bangkok. There is a healthy love for the American legend in Asia, and this evening was no exception. Here are some sights along the way, Wat Arun or Temple of Dawn, and the stunning Rama VIII Bridge, a cable-stayed bridge. Construction of the bridge took place from 1999 to 2002. Asymmetrical in design, a single pylon in an inverted Y shape located on the western bank of the river holds eighty-four cables. The bridge has a main span of 300 meters (980 ft), and was one of the world's largest asymmetrical cable-stayed bridges at the time of its completion. Asymmetrical totally works for Bangkok!
