Kanchanaburi is an ideal spot to make a day Kanchanaburi tour from Bangkok. Other than the wonderful River Kwai and the Erawan National Park, Kanchanaburi is likewise unmistakable for its tragic history.
Death Railway
The Bridge over the River Kwai is the most acclaimed and a known part of the Death Railway. It is said that 16,000 POWs and around 100,000 slaves died during the development, which is the reason it's called Death Railway.
You can either stroll over the extension while enjoying the view at the little side stages between the ranges or take one of the trains in activity that crosses the bridge each day. The most well known area of the railroad is the route to the "Hazardous Curve (Krasae Cave)".
Hellfire Pass
Hellfire Pass was a piece of the railroad where they expected to slice through a mountain to associate the tracks. This stretch of the railroad was named accordingly in light of the fact that the POWs chipping away at this site with lights around evening time looked like 'damnation'. Visit Hellfire Pass so as to observe the savage states of the POWS just as other verifiable destinations in Kanchanaburi with this visit!
Kanchanaburi War Cemetery
Kanchanaburi War Cemetery is situated opposite Kanchanaburi railroad station. This is the place 7,000 POWs of the Death Railway, generally from the U.K., the Netherlands, and Australia, are covered, and recognized. After the war finished, the Allies chose to move all the covered POWs bodies along the railroad to either the burial ground in Kanchanaburi or in Myanmar if the POWs passed on nearer to Myanmar (Burma).
The graveyard is perfectly kept up. Be that as it may, during the peak season access to graves might be shut to forestall harm to the grounds.
