Amapura, south of Mandalay Amapura is one of three former royal capitals south of Mandalay.



U Bein's Bridge U Bein's Bridge was built of teak from a palace that was deserted when the capital shifted from Ava to Amapura. At 1.2 km long, it is said to be the longest wooden bridge in the world, or at least the longest one made of teak.
