The Nuance
Being the part of Mandi Kapau Village, Panjang Bridge gets more popular over time. The village itself is famous for its neat and clean environment.

Exploring Panjang Bridge

Not only they can capture the bridge as a background, they also have other good objects to take including the water level and natural attractions on the horizon. Moreover, visitors can take selfies to their heart’s content. What they need to pay attention is the weather, as they need to come during good weather.
