Site Size & Condition: Ancient Bridge Spean (ស្ពាន - Pronounced: Spien) one of the many historic bridges built by King Jayavarman VII that spans the Royal roads leading out from Angkor to the far stretches of the empire. This one in particular sits within the grounds of the Phokeethra Country Club and has 11 arches and spans 30m x 10m. We are unsure of how easy it is to gain access to the bridge considering it sits in the golf course.
