The River Kwai Bridge and WWII museums provide important historical context, while nearby waterfalls and jungle landscapes offer balance and beauty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a meaningful destination for travelers who want more than beaches and temples.

The Bridge over the River Kwai <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It was built for the Second World War on behalf of the Japanese army, in just two years. The idea was to take advantage of the strategic location of the area and to have a means of communication and transport with the Burmese military. The route today is different, but it is a great tourist attraction thanks to the views you have of the jungle. Although in the past this train was very dangerous, hence its name, today it is not, as it is revised. So, the travellers can get on and have a unique experience, although some sections are shocking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Travellers tend to goon it as it offers a beautiful view of the city and the surrounding area. And you can enjoy the jungle in a more comfortable and pleasant way. We advise you to go with your camera ready, as well as to have some stops under control, as one of them is The Thailand-Bruma Railway Centre. The journey is about 2 or 3 kilometres and trains run three times a day. A <strong>standard ticket costs \u20ac2.63<\/strong> and a tourist ticket costs \u20ac7.88. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" data-attachment-id=\"23614\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/thailand\/things-to-do-in-kanchanaburi\/attachment\/things-to-se-in-kanchanaburi-the-bridge-over-the-river-kwai\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-se-in-Kanchanaburi-The-Bridge-Over-the-River-Kwai.jpg?fit=1024%2C684&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,684\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Things to see in Kanchanaburi The Bridge Over the River Kwai\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Things to see in Kanchanaburi The Bridge Over the River Kwai&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Things to see in Kanchanaburi: The Bridge Over the River Kwai @lucialonsooo&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-se-in-Kanchanaburi-The-Bridge-Over-the-River-Kwai.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-se-in-Kanchanaburi-The-Bridge-Over-the-River-Kwai.jpg?fit=1024%2C684&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-se-in-Kanchanaburi-The-Bridge-Over-the-River-Kwai.jpg?resize=1024%2C684&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Things to see in Kanchanaburi The Bridge Over the River Kwai\" class=\"wp-image-23614\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-se-in-Kanchanaburi-The-Bridge-Over-the-River-Kwai.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-se-in-Kanchanaburi-The-Bridge-Over-the-River-Kwai.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-se-in-Kanchanaburi-The-Bridge-Over-the-River-Kwai.jpg?resize=768%2C513&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Things to see in Kanchanaburi: The Bridge Over the River Kwai @lucialonsooo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-the-thailand-burma-railway-centre\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-The-Thailand-Burma-Railway-Centre\"><\/span>2.

Known as Don-Rak, it was designed by Colin St Cair Oakes as a tribute to all those who died during the Great War. Although 90,000 workers were killed during the construction of the railway, only around 6,000 people are remembered here. Most of them prisoners of the Allied side. You can see their names, ages and origins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you like history it is a quiet and beautiful place despite the background it conveys. In fact it is curious that many travellers find someone of the same nationality given the repercussions of the second world war. Nowadays it is like a garden area where there is a lot of green so it is beautiful to look at. <strong>It&#8217;s free to enter.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-attachment-id=\"23616\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/thailand\/things-to-do-in-kanchanaburi\/attachment\/kanchanaburi-travel-war-cemetery\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Kanchanaburi-travel-War-Cemetery.jpg?fit=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,682\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Kanchanaburi travel War Cemetery\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Kanchanaburi travel War Cemetery&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Kanchanaburi travel: War Cemetery @sonia_camos&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Kanchanaburi-travel-War-Cemetery.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Kanchanaburi-travel-War-Cemetery.jpg?fit=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Kanchanaburi-travel-War-Cemetery.jpg?resize=1024%2C682&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Kanchanaburi travel War Cemetery\" class=\"wp-image-23616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Kanchanaburi-travel-War-Cemetery.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Kanchanaburi-travel-War-Cemetery.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Kanchanaburi-travel-War-Cemetery.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Kanchanaburi travel: War Cemetery @sonia_camos<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-wat-tham-seua-temple\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Wat-Tham-Seua-Temple\"><\/span>4. <strong>Wat Tham Seua Temple<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You have to see it in Kanchanaburi. Known as the tiger cave, the temple is located on a small hill 15km from the city centre. Walk or take a funicular, although if walking are 157 steps, but it&#8217;s worth it. Also from the centre to this area you can go by minibus, public bus or taxi, located in the Khiriwong Valley area. It is one of the most important temples in the city. And a visit is a must not only for the beauty of the temple but also for the views you have from the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At first you can see the statue of a Buddha. It was built in 1973 along with two other smaller statues. <strong>It currently functions as a meditation centre,<\/strong> practising a form of Buddhism called Vipassana, which is based on the earliest Buddhist texts that were found. A curious fact is that you may encounter monkeys, so it&#8217;s best not to have too many necklaces in sight. Visiting hours are from 8:00 to 17:00. <strong>Admission is free<\/strong>, although if you want to go too deep you have to pay <strong>\u20ac0.5<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" data-attachment-id=\"23617\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/thailand\/things-to-do-in-kanchanaburi\/attachment\/vacations-in-kanchanaburi-wat-tham-seua-temple\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Vacations-in-Kanchanaburi-Wat-Tham-Seua-Temple.png?fit=960%2C640&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"960,640\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Vacations in Kanchanaburi Wat Tham Seua Temple\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Vacations in Kanchanaburi Wat Tham Seua Temple&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Vacations in Kanchanaburi: Wat Tham Seua Temple @5666043&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Vacations-in-Kanchanaburi-Wat-Tham-Seua-Temple.png?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Vacations-in-Kanchanaburi-Wat-Tham-Seua-Temple.png?fit=960%2C640&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Vacations-in-Kanchanaburi-Wat-Tham-Seua-Temple.png?resize=960%2C640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Vacations in Kanchanaburi Wat Tham Seua Temple\" class=\"wp-image-23617\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Vacations-in-Kanchanaburi-Wat-Tham-Seua-Temple.png?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Vacations-in-Kanchanaburi-Wat-Tham-Seua-Temple.png?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Vacations-in-Kanchanaburi-Wat-Tham-Seua-Temple.png?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Vacations in Kanchanaburi: Wat Tham Seua Temple @5666043<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-wat-ban-tham-temple\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-Wat-Ban-Tham-Temple\"><\/span>5. <strong>Wat Ban Tham Temple<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another must-see in Kanchanaburi is the Temple of the Dragon&#8217;s Mouth. In fact, many travellers have made the trip to the city from Bangkok just to visit it. This temple can be found 11km from Kanchanaburi and can be reached by climbing 150 steps. Although you can opt to rent a motorbike and climb to the top of the mountain going south towards Bangkok. The staircase comes out of the mouth of a dragon, hence its name. Both inside and out it is fascinating. In fact, the whole temple is built in the shape of a dragon. The most interesting thing is that inside you can see a kind of cave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No doubt if you want to make a good tour to see everything you should wear comfortable shoes, but it is satisfying to get to the top of the temple, as we have views of the River Kwai and you can enjoy the scenery that gives you the mountains, besides seeing some animals, you also have a food and drink area so you can drink something because after all the effort you have to eat well. Visiting hours are from 8:00 to 17:00, and <strong>entry is free.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-the-train-of-death\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6-The-train-of-death\"><\/span>6. The train of death<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It was built for the Second World War on behalf of the Japanese army, in just two years, the idea was to take advantage of the strategic location of the area and to have a means of communication and transport with the military in Burma. The route today is different, but it is a great tourist attraction thanks to the views you have of the jungle, although in the past this train was very dangerous, hence its name, today it is not dangerous, as it is revised so that travellers can get on and have a unique experience, although some sections are shocking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Travellers tend to travel on it as it offers a beautiful view of the city and the surrounding area, and you can enjoy the jungle in a more comfortable and pleasant way, we advise you to go with your camera ready, as well as having some stops under control, as one of them is The Thailand-Bruma Railway Centre. The journey is about 2 or 3 kilometres and trains run three times a day. A normal ticket costs <strong>\u20ac2.63<\/strong> and the <strong>tourist ticket costs <strong>\u20ac7.88<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" data-attachment-id=\"23620\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/thailand\/things-to-do-in-kanchanaburi\/attachment\/things-to-do-in-kanchanaburi-death-train\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-do-in-Kanchanaburi-Death-Train.jpg?fit=960%2C540&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"960,540\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Things to do in Kanchanaburi Death Train\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Things to do in Kanchanaburi Death Train&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Things to do in Kanchanaburi: Death Train @nekunchi&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-do-in-Kanchanaburi-Death-Train.jpg?fit=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-do-in-Kanchanaburi-Death-Train.jpg?fit=960%2C540&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-do-in-Kanchanaburi-Death-Train.jpg?resize=960%2C540&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Things to do in Kanchanaburi Death Train\" class=\"wp-image-23620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-do-in-Kanchanaburi-Death-Train.jpg?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-do-in-Kanchanaburi-Death-Train.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Things-to-do-in-Kanchanaburi-Death-Train.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Things to do in Kanchanaburi: Death Train @nekunchi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-to-see-around-kanchanaburi\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What-to-see-around-Kanchanaburi\"><\/span>What to see around Kanchanaburi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-the-erawan-waterfalls\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1-The-Erawan-Waterfalls\"><\/span>1. The Erawan Waterfalls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Erawan Waterfalls are a must-see in Kanchanaburi if you&#8217;re one of those who can&#8217;t resist the urge to enjoy more than the usual city stuff. You can find them in the Erawan National Park located 65km from Kanchanaburi, they can be reached by bus, taxi or motorbike as they are a tourist attraction with buses running from the city centre here, bus fares are around \u20ac1.35. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are about 7 waterfalls with different levels, each one more beautiful than the previous one. Although it is true that if your plan is to be quiet having a picnic we recommend you to go to the smallest one as the big one is usually very crowded, we also advise you to go early to get a place, and if you are one of those who need to take many pictures because you can&#8217;t help it, this place will make you fall in love with it. The entrance fee <strong>is \u20ac5.26<\/strong> and it&#8217;s better that you go in the morning as it gets very crowded throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery

And if you&#8217;re a fan of getting lost and letting nature surprise you, Kanchanaburi&#8217;s Sai Yok Noi National Park is a must-see. Located about 55km from the city centre, it is famous for the Sai Yok waterfalls, which are not as famous as Erawan but are very beautiful. It can be accessed by car or motorbike and is 10 metres from the river. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a crossing called the &#8220;Hellfire Pass section&#8221; which is a section that passes through a part that is no longer in railway use. We don\u00b4t  recommend it if you have a fear of heights. However, if you are an adrenaline junkie the section Hellfire Pass is beautiful. Also, there are some caves that you could visit, there are 4 of them and they are accessed by a tourist route, some of them are up to 500 metres deep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery
