two days, a city with historical landmarks and natural beauty. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Kanchanaburi<\/strong> is a relatively small town with over 30 000 inhabitants (2006), located 120 km West of Bangkok. Unlike other places in Thailand, it hasn\u2019t been invaded by tourism. However, there\u2019s no lack of guest houses, hostels, bars, restaurants, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, this is still manageable, the attractions aren\u2019t overcrowded, and the town doesn\u2019t look just like a mega adult\u2019s playground like Phuket and most of the islands.\u00a0The town\u2019s riverside is still charming, and the bridge gives it a certain character, but then again, the bigger attractions are outside the town.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s explore the <strong>best things to do in Kanchanaburi in two days!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Things_to_do_in_Kanchanaburi_in_2_days_%E2%80%93_Day_one\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Things_to_do_in_Kanchanaburi_in_2_days_-_Day_one\"><\/span>Things to do in Kanchanaburi in 2 days \u2013 Day one<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Death_Railway\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Death_Railway\"><\/span>Death Railway<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The Death Railway, also called the Burma Railway, was a 415 Km railway connecting Bangkok (Thailand) to Rangoon (Burma). The project was created by the Japanese to solve their problem of supplying Burma during WW2. To build the railway, the Japanese used 60 000 Prisoners of War (POW), 180 000 South East Asian enslaved workers (Romusha), and 12 000 Japanese and Korean soldiers and Engineers.<\/p>\n<p>The living and working conditions during the construction were so bad that 90 000 Romusha, 12 000 POWs, and even almost 1000 Japanese died. These deaths were caused by diseases (malaria, cholera, dysentery, tropical ulcers\u2026), insufficient nutrition, work accidents, and exhaustion.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"529\" alt=\"what to do In Kanchanaburi\" class=\"wp-image-7362\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.traveldrafts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Top-Things-to-do-In-Kanchanaburi2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.traveldrafts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Top-Things-to-do-In-Kanchanaburi2-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.traveldrafts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Top-Things-to-do-In-Kanchanaburi2-768x508.jpg 768w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" title=\"7 best things to do in Kanchanaburi in two days 1 Kanchanaburi in two days\" src=\"https:\/\/www.traveldrafts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Top-Things-to-do-In-Kanchanaburi2.jpg\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"529\" src=\"https:\/\/www.traveldrafts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Top-Things-to-do-In-Kanchanaburi2.jpg\" alt=\"what to do In Kanchanaburi\" class=\"wp-image-7362\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.traveldrafts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Top-Things-to-do-In-Kanchanaburi2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.traveldrafts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Top-Things-to-do-In-Kanchanaburi2-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.traveldrafts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Top-Things-to-do-In-Kanchanaburi2-768x508.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" title=\"7 best things to do in Kanchanaburi in two days 1 Kanchanaburi in two days\"><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Things to do in Kanchanaburi \u2013 Death Railway<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Railway itself is considered an impressive accomplishment. In a very short time, they built 415 km of railway through dense tropical jungle and mountains, more than 600 bridges, and almost without machinery and with very little supply.<\/p>\n<p>Although the railway was finished ahead of the original schedule, it was also considered a strategic failure because of the very little cargo transported by the Japanese during the war.<\/p>\n<p>Above all, it was a War Crime committed by Japan and is an example of how far we can go to achieve a goal.<\/p>\n<p>The movie \u201c<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2ImrWO8\">The Bridge on the River Kwai<\/a>\u201d (and the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Egjqff\">book <\/a>it\u2019s based on) is about the construction of bridge 277 in the Death Railway.

The Hellfire Pass is almost at the beginning of the trail, so if you want, you can visit it there and then return, not making the full trail.<\/p>\n<p>As walking fans, we decided to make the whole trail and really enjoyed it. Note that this is a very rocky and a bit hilly path, so it\u2019s harder than it seems at first sight.

We preferred Kanchanaburi to any of the islands, to Chiang Mai, and even to Bangkok. Kanchanaburi is inexpensive, relaxed, and has fewer tourists than most of Thailand. It has its share but is yet to be overrun by tourists<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, It has plenty of things to do, from history to trails and waterfalls\u2026 and these are easily accessible through public transport, buses, and trains. No need for taxis, tuk-tuks, or expensive tours!<\/p>\n<p>Two days in Kanchanaburi is the perfect time for a relaxed visit. You can do the historical things in one day, and the waterfalls in the other. The bridge visit can be done whenever you feel like it, as it is inside the city.<\/p>\n<p>One last suggestion, watch the famous <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0050212\/\">\u201cThe Bridge on the River Kwai\u201d<\/a> while in Kanchanaburi!
