Kanchanaburi (River Kwai)

The road from Bangkok gradually rises along a plain of sugar cane fields to the foothills where the quaint city of Kanchanaburi is located. The film, \"Bridge Over the River Kwai\", chronicling the 2nd World War occupation forces utilizing allied POWs to build the \"Death Railway\" was shot on location here. There are a number of museums paying homage to the brave who died during this period as well as two cemeteries containing their remains.
