The wind from the Dong Nai River always brings a cool, pleasant feeling. Every afternoon when the sun gradually sets, it is not difficult to see the image of middle-aged couples and elderly people walking on the bridge. Meanwhile, the flow of people and vehicles still rushes by.

Bridges are not only transportation structures but also historical witnesses. On both sides of the river, the scenery changes every day, reflecting the city's constant development from the early days of exploration to the modern development period.

As the sun gradually sets behind the horizon, the orange-yellow light covers the entire area, creating a romantic, peaceful space.

Watching the sunset on the bridge, people can easily feel relaxed and relieved after a busy working day. These moments bring viewers a feeling of closeness to nature, helping them temporarily forget their daily worries.

Let's enjoy the beautiful sunset scene on the bridges over the Dong Nai River in Bien Hoa, Dong Nai province.

Located next to Nguyen Van Tri Park, Hoa An Bridge is an ideal sunset viewing spot for young people. When the sun sets, the brilliant light shines down on the river, creating a romantic and peaceful scene.

In the afternoon, people often go to the park to enjoy the breeze and exercise. Snacks such as fried fish balls, grilled rice paper, lemon tea, smoothies... are dishes that young people love to enjoy, chat, and watch the beautiful sunset view.

Hiep Hoa Bridge is a bridge connecting the city center with Hiep Hoa Islet. After the bridge was inaugurated, people saved a lot of time traveling to the city center. From Hiep Hoa Bridge, you can see Ghenh Bridge on the opposite side.

At the end of Hiep Hoa bridge, turn left onto Ha Huy Giap street and you will reach two extremely difficult bridges, not for “weak drivers”, which are Rach Cat bridge and Ghenh bridge.

Ghenh Bridge, one of the iconic bridges of Bien Hoa, was built during the French colonial period and has gone through many ups and downs. The bridge spans the Dong Nai River, connecting Pho Islet with the center of Bien Hoa City. It is an indispensable part of the North-South railway, playing an important role in connecting traffic and economic development of the region.

However, this bridge currently has many different names.

According to many Bien Hoa residents, especially the elderly living in Pho Islet, calling the bridge "Ghenh Bridge" is not correct and has less meaning than the name "Ganh Bridge" that local people have used for hundreds of years.

The name "Ganh Bridge" not only bears a strong historical mark but also reflects the local cultural identity, closely associated with the memories and lives of many generations of residents here.

Located parallel to Ghenh Bridge is Buu Hoa Bridge. Buu Hoa Bridge is an important traffic route connecting Buu Hoa ward with neighboring areas.

Mr. Hoan shared that every afternoon his group of cyclists cycle around Buu Hoa, Hiep Hoa, and Tan Van wards. At around 5:45 or 6:00, they reach Buu Hoa bridge, where the whole group stops to rest and watch the sunset on the bridge.

An Hao Bridge is located at the river junction, one of the bridges with beautiful views in Bien Hoa. From this bridge, people can watch cars and boats passing by, with Dong Nai Bridge looming in the distance.

Every afternoon, many people fish and enjoy the cool breeze on the bridge, creating a lively panorama.
