8 Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Kanchanaburi That You Shouldn't Miss
Kanchanaburi, capital of Kanchanaburi Province, is home to the Burma Railway (aka "Death Railway") bridge built by Allied POWs during WWII and immortalized in Bridge Over the River Kwai. A memorial and two museums commemorate those who died in the effort, and a yearly carnival includes a pyrotechnic recreation of the bridge’s bombing. The wider province offers forests and caves to explore, and beautiful waterfalls.

Very descriptive of the shocking things that took place during the war and the building of the Thai Burna railway, with models of the men in a very imancipated state. There were stories of things that happened during that time

I was stunned by the amount of memorabilia that is housed here, it is truly amazing. Another amazing thing was the history that is all hand painted on the walls, either in the form of murals or as written stories. Great place to see all the things that have been uncovered, saved or donated from the war efforts in this region. Very reasonable entry prices too and just around the corner from the Bridge on the River Kwai
