Kanchanaburi

Kanchanaburi is located in the west of Bangkok, bordering Myanmar in the west. It is the fourth largest government in Thailand, and has always been famous for the Gui River Bridge and the "Death Railway" built in the Second World War. Beibi Prefecture is known as one of the most beautiful provincial capitals in Thailand.



In Kan chanaburi, 122 kilometers northwest of Bangkok, this bridge across the Gui River, the Gui River Bridge, reflects a period of history during World War II: during the Japanese occupation of Thailand, they forced the Allied prisoners of war to build a railway connecting Myanmar and Siam. This railway was completed only after countless precious lives were sacrificed, so it is called the "dead railway". The Guihe River Bridge is one of them, which is called the throat of the "Death Railway". The terrain on one side of the bridge is relatively gentle, but once crossing the river, there are steep peaks, and some sections are even cut on the cliffs.







Lovers Bay Waterfall is located in Erawan National Park, which is a famous national park in Thailand. Seven layer waterfalls are scattered in the park. The Lovers Bay Waterfall is a ladder type waterfall, climbing up one layer at a time. Each layer has a signboard and a water play area. Each layer has a unique charm and charm.











The Allied Cemetery is opposite the railway station. There are 6982 tombstones of Allied prisoners of war from Britain, the Netherlands, Australia, Malaysia, India, New Zealand, Canada and Myanmar. Most of them died when building the "Death Railway". The cemetery is full of green grass, flowers and thousands of 16K paper sized marble gravestones. Many of the prisoners died young and heartbreaking.









The Jesse War Museum, located in Beibi, Thailand, was founded by a monk from Chunbo Temple, while the Jeath is the abbreviation of the initials of Japan, Britain, America, Thailand and Holland. They all gathered together in Beibi during World War II. The museum looks like a small bamboo house where prisoners of war once lived. There are lunch boxes, money, paper and pen, letterhead, maps, etc., all donated by the surviving prisoners of war.









Saiyu National Park is located in the northeast of Beibi Prefecture, adjacent to Delin Dayi Province, Myanmar. It is a forest park covering an area of 500 square kilometers. The park is mostly covered with deciduous and dry evergreen broad-leaved forests, which are also mixed with many bamboos. The low-lying area along the kwae river is teak forest, which was cut down when Thailand was invaded by Japan, and was replanted only in 1954. There are also many wild animals in the park, such as elephants, gibbons, red muntjacs, hornbills, pig nosed bats and many other rare animals.
