Thailand 2007 Holiday Gallery - Kanchanaburi

HOLIDAYS GALLERIES MENU HOLIDAYS GALLERIES MENU WEBSITE HOME PAGE NEXT GALLERY NEXT GALLERY
Kanchanaburi is quite a small town but one which has many places of interest nearby.  It quckly became my favorite place in the Kingdom which is why we stayed there twice during this holiday.  We located the lovely welcoming VN guest house right by, and part of it on, the river.  This was not the River Kwai as it had been wrongly named in the novel and film about the Burma railway, but rather a triibutory of the Kwai.  Ever enterprisng the Thai’s have simply re-named it to be the Kwai.  Afew miles away is the site known as Hellfire Pass with a museum commemorating the many POWs and forced labourers from Burma who died contstructing this ill conceived project.  The photos hopefully give a flavour of what we did there.
