Full Description

Bridge Over River Kwai

Few landmarks represent Kanchanaburi Province as powerfully as the Bridge over the River Kwai. This place is not merely an ordinary steel bridge, but a living chapter of history. The Bridge over the River Kwai forms part of the Death Railway, which was constructed during World War II by the Japanese army as a strategic route to Myanmar. Visitors can walk along the railway tracks that stretch across the iconic black steel bridge. Along the way, there are semi circular platforms extending from the bridge, providing ideal spots for taking photographs and capturing the atmosphere of the bridge, the railway, and the beautiful Khwae Yai River.

Saiyok Elephant Park

Saiyok Elephant Park offers a warm and meaningful experience that allows visitors to connect with elephants through care, learning, and shared moments. This is not just an activity, but a gentle opportunity to spend time with these kind hearted giants in a natural and respectful way. Visitors are invited to prepare food for the elephants, feed them by hand, and enjoy bathing with them in the River Kwai.

The experience begins with learning how to make nutritious supplemental food for the elephants using cooked rice, tamarind, bananas, and rice bran. These natural ingredients are carefully mixed together and shaped into small round portions by hand. Once prepared, visitors can personally feed the elephants and offer fresh fruits such as watermelon and bananas, creating moments of trust and connection.

Afterward, the experience continues with bathing the elephants in the Kwai Noi River. Visitors can join the elephants in the water and help gently scrub their bodies. This shared moment helps keep the elephants clean while creating a joyful and refreshing experience together. Bathing with the elephants offers one of the closest and most heartwarming ways to connect with these gentle giants, leaving visitors with lasting and meaningful memories.

Erawan National Park

Erawan Waterfall is one of the most popular natural attractions in Kanchanaburi, often chosen by visitors seeking relaxation and time in nature. Its highlight is the clear emerald green water flowing down limestone formations in seven cascading tiers. Each level features natural pools where visitors can rest, swim, or take photographs at their own pace.

The paths leading to each tier are well organized nature trails, allowing visitors to explore the waterfall safely while enjoying the lush forest surroundings and the soothing sound of flowing water that creates a relaxing atmosphere throughout the walk.
