Kanchanaburi (River Kwai), Thailand
 

Amphoe Sai Yok
Hell Fire Pass
One part of the Death Railway during the World War 2nd., the pass is located near Kilometer maker 66 on the Sai Yok-Thong Pha Phum Road and now abandoned.

 

Nam Tok Sai Yok
A classic Thai song gained immortality by the way it eulogizes the idylic beauty of Sai Yok Falls. Now a part of the National Park, the falls are 104 kms. from Kanchanaburi on the Asian Highway, which runs north from Kanchanaburi to its northern most district Sangkhla on the Thai Burmese border. At km. 104 is the left-hand entrance to the Sai Yok National Park on the bank of  Kwai Noi River.

The Sai Yok waterfalls are on the same side of the river, to the left. To get the full visual impact of the waterfalls, a new high-tensile wire-rope suspension bridge has been strung across just the late last year for tourist to across over for a view of the falls from the opposite side. Accommodation in the form of raft house by this bridge is provided for the tourists. Over on the side is a sand bank, from where Sai Yok Falls could be seen full face, and appreciated.

Nam Tok Khao Phang or Sai Yok Noi This waterfall is about 2 kms. from the present end of the "Death Railway" line which is called Nam-Tok Station. It is about 77 kms. from Kanchanaburi town. The trip to this place would be interesting for those who like to try on the noterious "Death Railway" route once. The countryside and the landscape are among one of the most beautiful places in Thailand too.
However, during the dry season (September-April) there is not much water so you may not enjoy your swimming at the waterfall. Therefore, the best period for playing around in this waterfall should be within the rainy season.
There is local bus service from town to place every half an hour from 6.45 am.-6.00pm. daily trip takes about 2 hours.. Riding on the bus to this place is good sight-seeing for those visitor who have enough time.

A boat ride to Tham Kaeng Lawa and Nam Tok Sai Yok This trip will give you a very pleasant and adventurous experience that could hardly be forgotten. Along this part of the Kwai Noi is so rich with scenic beauties and wild animals in the forest as well as near by the riverbank. Kaeng Lawa Cave is one of you interesting spots to visit. It is the biggest cave of the area and the stalactites and stalagmites are so wonderful and peculiar by nature creation. After this visit, you can start on again to the Sai Yok Yai waterfall which is very enchanting for everyone. If your time allow, It is a…must too.
You can hire a boat from Park Saeng Pier at Tam-Bon Tha Sao. A round trip will cost 1,000-1,200 baht/boat. One boat could carry 10-12 persons. It takes about 2 ? hours upstream to Sai Yok an 1 ? hours downstream (return-trip).

Amphoe Sagkhla Buri
Erawan national Park
65 kms. from Kanchanaburi along Route 3199, is the site of the 7-tiered Eawan Waterfall, widely regarded as being one of the Thailand's loveliest cascades. The 550-square-kilometre national park enjoys a mountainside forest setting. Dense bamboo groves support numerous bird species. The park's other major attraction is the spectacular Phrathat Cave which contains monumental stalagmites. Bungalow accommodation and camping facilities are available. One can get to this place by a local bus departing from the bus terminal in Kanchanaburi near TAT office every 50 minutes from 8.00 am.-4.00 pm. The trip will take about 1 hours.

Si Nakarin Dam
Five kilometers furter up the same road to Erawan Falls lies the Si Nakharin Dam, an impressive major hydroelectric power plant project. At the Dam-site,a sizable community of superbly planned complex of project buildings, personnel housing, recreation center and guest residences blend incongruously into the rocky hillsides supporting the 300 feet high concrete dam.
