Spean Thmar is located 200 meters (656 feet) east of
Thommanon. It can be accessed by walk to the side of the road and down the path.
BACKGROUND
Spean Thma is a bridge constructed of reused blocks of
sandstone of varying shapes and sizes, which suggests it was built to replace
an earlier one.

The orientation of the bridge seems odd because the course
of the river has changed. The river one flows along the right side of the
bridge of under its arches.
LAYOUT: The bridge is supported on massive pillars, the
openings between them spanned by narrow corbel arches. There are reportedly
traces of 14 arches.
