Burma-Thai Railway

Reviewed By I1376GIannek

We did a private tour through Viator. Private Tour: Thai Burma Death Railway Bridge on the River Kwai Tour from Bangkok. This is a great way to visit this important area. We had a lovely guide, Tum, who was both attentive and knowledgeable. It is a 2 hour drive there and back so it is a chance to view outside Bangkok. The war cemetery is a somber yet beautiful place. We had a great river trip to the bridge and an hour train trip over the bridge and beyond. Followed by a magnificent thai lunch in a local village.

Wat Ban Tham

Reviewed By jont53 - Singapore, Singapore

Definitely worth a visit if you are nearby here. About 7xx stairs to reach the Buddha statue at the top of the hill while there is also a temple at mid hill. some part of the stairs are hard to climb and narrow but well worth a visit. If you are lucky , you may encounter a monk at the hilltop there giving blessing.

Guan Im Sutham Temple

Reviewed By robert-not-home

If you have come to the River Kwai Bridge walk across it and visit this new and colorful temple. It is very nice and worth a bit of your time if you are in the area. It's a short walk across the bridge on your right - you'll see if from across the river and very easy to get to.
