Sri Racha is a town in the Chonburi province of Thailand, on the eastern Thai seaboard, ~70kms from Bangkok. Sitting just off the mainland is a small island named Koh (Koh being the Thai word for island), Loy, which contains both a small Buddhist wat, and a recreation park (not an uncommon pairing in Thailand). Connecting this fun island to the town is a pedestrian and vehicular bridge.
In the bridge centre is a dedicatory stone plaque. The date given on the stone is August of 2547 in the Buddhist Era, which translates to 2004 CE. The name given is 'Sri Racha Bridge'. Parking is available on either sides of the bridge. The waymark location is the site of this stone.
Date built or dedicated as indicated on the date stone or plaque.: 2547/2004
Road, body of water, land feature, etc. that the bridge spans.: Bay of Bangkok.
