Before the collapse of this bridge is one
of the attractions of interest Kukar tourists. Bridge with a length of
about 712 meters and a width of 9 feet is a liaison between the city and the
city of Samarinda Tenggarong. At first glance, Tenggarong Bridge
construction is similar to the "Golden Gate" in San Francisco, United
States. From the bridge we could see the sights to a range of facilities
including an outdoor stage that is often used for art and cultural performances
both locally and nationally. Right next to the bridge, there is a small
pond and fountain with colorful spotlights that at night produces a very
beautiful color blend. Not far from the stage area many young children play skate board there.
