Sommot Amon Mak Bridge

Sommot Amon Mak Bridge (Thai: สะพานสมมตอมรมารค, RTGS: Saphan Sommot Amon Mak, pronounced [sā.pʰāːn sǒm.mót ʔā.mɔ̄ːn mâːk]) is a historic bridge over the khlong (canal) in Bangkok.

This area in the early Rattanakosin period there's gate for transport dead bodies from the inner city or within Grand Palace.

Many bodies have been left along the road or the temple grounds, so that the vultures are eaten, it's an abomination to those who have seen.

The temple that was cremated during that time was Wat Sa Ket, including crematorium made of cement nearby.

Presently, the cement crematorium has been demolished but its name still stands today and becomes the official intersection.

Cement crematorium near Wat Saket in the past (circa 1900), the small spots on the crematorium's top are vultures waiting to eat the corpses
