Jambatan Iskandar, Kuala Kangsar (16 September, 2005)
The Iskandar Bridge (GPS: 4.81831, 100.9639) crosses the Perak River near Kuala Kangsar. This steel bridge was constructed by James Craig Ltd of Klang between 1928-1932 for the British administration. The Iskandar Bridge carried the main trunk road that runs the west coast of Peninsula Malaysia.
Today the newer Sultan Abdul Jalil Bridge, which is closer to Kuala Kangsar, takes some load off this heritage Iskandar Bridge. I shot the Iskandar Bridge when a group of AsiaExplorers members and I were sightseeing Kuala Kangsar on our way to Cameron Highlands.
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
