Krasae Cave & Wooden Bridge |
| |
|
Krasae Cave & Wooden Bridge A spectacular section of the Death Railway running along side of the mountain side. Constructed by the local & allied POW's, this part of the railway has to
be one of the most interesting sections still in commission today, crossing it
by foot or indeed by train this wooden bridge is quite an engineering eye
opener. You will hopefully also enjoy the great views offered by the mountain
& river scenery at this location. Nestled into the mountain side right besides
the railway tracks you will find & explore the Krasae Cave. With several interesting Buddha images & rock formation these two sights are well
worth taking the time to see & add to the over all fun & experience

Death Railway |
|
Death Railway Travel along the Death Railway by local train, (built between1942-1945)
from stations end at Sai Yok Noi, over the Wooden Bridge, all the way back
to the famous Bridge over the River Kwai into Kanchanaburi itself.
You will experience the genuine route that the POW's gave their lives building meter by meter through, what was then, thick jungle full of danger & disease, now of course it is perfectly safe & the only discomfort is the knowledge that
so many gave so much to accomplish this modest length of railway. It is a beautiful experience & we feel an important part of the offered tour. The train ticket cost is included within the purchase price of the tour. The Death Railway is an important part of Kanchanaburi history

| Hellfire Pass Memorial |
|
Hellfire Pass Memorial Located 80 km N. W. from the city of Kanchanaburi the Hellfire Pass & Memorial museum was set up as a joint Thai/Australian government combined project in 1994. The site was chosen for its particularly horrific part played during the Japanese occupation in WW2. A huge number of allied & local prisoners died during the building of this small stretch of the Death Railway.
The Museum is situated at this section of the railway, & offers a clear& detailed education on what happened here during the war years, it is a must see
if you are wanting information on what went on in this area during the WW2. It
also offers several different walking routs along the original track. Stout walking boots, sun protection & plenty of water are advised if taking the longer walks.

| Earwan national Park |
|
Erawan National Park In our view probably the most spectacular sets of waterfalls in the whole of Thailand. Set within the Erawan National Park the trek up to the head of
the falls is stunning to say the least. With seven tiers of waterfalls set over a
2 km hike through beautiful forest, you could not ask for a more perfect
setting in which to spend your time. The water is clear & fresh & after a hike through the forest you will enjoy taking a swim in the fresh water pools
along the way so make sure you remember your towel & swimming
costume. Good walking foot wear is also strongly recommended for an tour involving any trekking. If your lucky you might get to see some of
Thailand's less frequently seen wildlife whilst in the park.
