Discover Vietnam: A Vietnam Podcast

We Tried the Craziest Road in Thailand! On The Road (In Thailand) with Niall and Adrie #13

18 May 2025

Description

This trip was one of the most fun and immersive ones we’ve recorded so far. Pai has this laid-back charm and unexpected beauty that really took us by surprise.Adrie and I take you along as we explore some of Pai’s must-see spots — and wow, what a day. We started with the National Park Hot Springs, where the water gets hot enough to boil eggs (or a human, seriously). Then we checked out the WWII Memorial Bridge (Nara Bridge), which has a surprisingly cool history behind it. After that, we made our way across the Bamboo Bridge (NAME), a nearly 1-kilometer-long structure built for the ‘Gram, complete with swings, hearts, and even a ladder to nowhere. Finally, we wrapped things up at the breathtaking — and slightly terrifying — Pai Canyon for sunset. It was beautiful, hilarious, a bit slippery, and definitely memorable. If you’re heading to Pai or just want to know what it’s really like, this one’s for you.Key TakeawaysPai Hot Springs are natural and beautiful, but can be dangerous — always check temperatures and wear grippy shoes.Respect local customs — the hot springs are used by locals, so be clean and mindful (no peeing, no weed, no booze!).Tha Pai Memorial Bridge has a rich WWII history — rebuilt multiple times and now a perfect selfie stop.Bamboo Bridge is a modern tourist gem, filled with photo ops — hearts, swings, and “ladder to nowhere” included.Pai Canyon offers stunning views, but be prepared for narrow paths, sheer drops, and zero handrails — not for the faint-hearted.Chapters & Timestamps[00:02:00] Cultural Tips + Slippery Rocks Local etiquette, weed laws in Thailand, and practical warnings.[00:04:00] WWII Memorial Bridge History A Japanese-built war bridge turned tourist stop — and a lesson in resilience.[00:06:00] Bamboo Bridge Adventures 815 meters of Instagram heaven, odd photo props, and a sandy, bouncy stroll.[00:10:00] Sunset at Pai Canyon Stunning views, sketchy ledges, and why alcohol is not sold up there.[00:17:00] Final Thoughts and Laughs Slipping, climbing, joking, and reflecting on Pai’s wild charm."Send me a message!"Vote now for Discover Vietnam!
