Tembilahan City of Thousand Bridges / River image source : Stevenalong.blogspot.com https://stevenalong.blogspot.com/2015/04/kabupaten-indragiri-hilir.html Tembilahan is one of the Capital Districts in Riau Province, to be exact the capital of the Indragiri Regency downstream. If you arrive here, then cross a lot of bridges because almost every few tens of meters there must be a bridge. Did you know, the bridges crossed the ditches (in Malay means river) about 10 to 20 meters wide. These trenches are made as irrigation for coconut plantations. These trenches have been around for hundreds of years.

This bridge is called the Indragiri bridge. The bridge, which was built for 3 years, divides the Indragiri river with a length of more than 1500 meters. This bridge has a magnificent and charming architecture, not least with the bridge in the city of Sydney, Australia.

no need to thank me my friend :D i enjoyed reading your article.
Very nice natural features. But are the bridges and rivers in Tembilahan actually thousand in number or it's just a hyperbolation?
Only hyperbole, but the number is indeed very much. but not in the thousands.
Beautiful place. Loved the waterfall. I have friends that have been to Indonesia for holidays. The enjoy the culture, shops and tourist attractions. I like cracking open coconuts. But havent done that for years. :)
