Kanchanaburi Vacation Guide

Kanchanaburi is located to the west of Bangkok and is well known as a historical place in Thailand. The famous Bridge on the River Kwai, which was built by Prisoners of War (PoW) and forced labour from across Japanese occupied Asian countries, is located in this town.

JEATH War Museum, Thailand Burma Death Railway Museum and the Allied Kanchanaburi War Cemetery are the most visited places in Kanchanaburi since it will bring back your memory to WWII. The town is also home to the ethically dubious Tiger Temple.

A 65km drive from town allows a visit to the spectacular but expensive Erawan Waterfalls National Park with several tiers of falls and fish filled pools to swim in.
