Informative and well maintained. On the second floor there was a small display case with belonging that had been donated from several POW families that I found especially interesting. History, timelines and maps were helpful.

Excellent place and location. Great service and friendly staffs. Value for tickets. Very excellent museum. After walking all around then you can bring the tickets for to get the drinks free at coffee shop up stair. Excellent place that you shouldn't miss out when you come to Khanchanaburi Thailand.

Good flow, very educational and informative. Hard to give a death museum 5 stars but definitely worth a visit. 170 baht for adult ticket, this comes with a free tea or coffee available in the cafe upstairs. Would allow 1hr+. Nice staff

This historical place brought us back to the times when Japanese atrocities were inhumane and intolerable. The families of these prisoners of war will never be able to forget what had been done to their family members. Hopefully all countries will learn from this and never allow this to happen again.

Very informative and learned a lot of things that I didn’t know. Plenty of interactive exhibits. Ticket to get in entitles you to a free tea or coffee in cafe upstairs, which also sells snacks and soft drinks

Explains in depth on the reasoning behind the construction of this railway and how it was built. Reminds us that we shouldn’t allow such atrocities to happen again

Very inspiring and emotional place. Presentation is very informative. Cemetery is kept immaculately.

A peaceful and moving place that honors the memory of Allied POWs who died building the Death Railway. The cemetery is beautifully maintained and offers a quiet space for reflection. A must visit if you're in Kanchanaburi and interested in WWII history.

Kanchanaburi War Cemetery, also known as Don-Rak War Cemetery, is the primary burial ground for prisoners of war who died during the construction of the Burma Railway, also known as the Death Railway. Located in Kanchanaburi, Thailand, it holds the graves of over 6,900 Allied soldiers, primarily British, Australian, and Dutch, who perished from exhaustion, malnutrition, and disease.

A sad memorial to prisoners of war who died on a construction of the railway. Most of the soldiers died in their 20s. Well maintained.

The Kanchanaburi war cemetery is a solemn place dedicated to the memory of the fallen during world war 2. There were many nationalities during this period but I believe majority of the ones buried here are either British or Australian. It's right across the death railway museum.

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful place of remembrance whilst also full of sadness. The place is extremely well kept and in pristine condition. Thankyou to the local workers here.

Visit this place to give respect to war sufferers, who lost their lives during world war 2. Similar cemetery is at Kohima , Nagaland , India where the Japanese were defeated by allied armies.

Visited on 11th November for the remembrance service. Well attended, solemn and respectful.

The Tiger Cave Temple is stunning, with its giant golden Buddha statue and panoramic views over the countryside. The stair climb is worth it – at the top you’re rewarded with breathtaking scenery and a peaceful atmosphere. A must-visit when exploring Kanchanaburi.

I came unprepared and late at 4pm. When I got down around 5:30 the temple was closed, everyone was gone, my phone was dying and there was no taxis or motorbikes in the area taking jobs. Inside the cave had lights but they weren’t working so it wasn’t great inside and coukdnt take pics of the statue. Also quite dangerous. The top was lovely, great view. Also there are toilets at the top and halfway point, so if you need to go, hold on til you find them! I was carrying a child up and down and it was pretty hectic.. some of the stairs are very very steep. Make sure you have had enough food earlier in the day, your legs will be trembling afterwards. The cute puppies all around were a delight.

The temple we made our second visit from six years ago, recently they have an elevator in construction the time we went on June2025. It's worth going up, the huge Buddha architecture is stunning and the peaceful rice fields view from above are all the elements that made me want to come pay a visit again.

if you’re up for a serious climb, excited by views and meditation, and respectful of the temple’s spiritual side. It’s a sweaty, tough trek—but the summit will leave you feeling accomplished, energized, and more than a little inspired.

Stunning temple with views all around. Car lift not working so steps it is 10 mins up. Worth going for sure

Merzkhem is full of stairs. For those who don't want to climb it all, there is a kind of train that goes up the stairs. Inside the temples there are more stairs that can go all the way to the top. It's worth going up and seeing everything. Anyone who has a problem with stairs shouldn't try it. It's much faster, which is a shame because it's very beautiful, but you have to climb a lot of stairs.

wow !!!so impressive wat and beutiful view . we use the cable car to go .there(40baht per person round trip)

🌿 Erawan National Park 📍 94GV+5HW, Tha Kradan, Si Sawat District, Kanchanaburi 71250, Thailand This is truly one of the most beautiful national parks in Thailand! The highlight here is the Erawan Waterfall, which has seven tiers, each one different and stunning in its own way. The first few levels are easy to reach and great for relaxing or swimming, while the upper levels take a bit more effort to hike but are absolutely worth it. There are small shops near the entrance where you can buy food, snacks, drinks, and coffee before starting your walk. You can also take a golf cart ride to the first level if you prefer not to walk the first stretch. After the second level, you’ll need to register your water bottles and leave a small deposit (refunded when you bring them back). No food is allowed beyond this point, which helps keep the waterfalls clean, something I really appreciate. If you’re visiting during a Thai public holiday, be prepared for large crowds. Otherwise, on normal days, it’s peaceful and very enjoyable. There’s also a campground if you want to stay overnight, and nearby spots like the Erawan Dam are worth checking out too. Entrance Fees (as of 2025): •Thai Adults: 100 THB | Thai Children: 50 THB •Foreign Adults: 300 THB | Foreign Children: 200 THB Overall, this park is 100% worth the trip, beautiful nature, clean water, and well-maintained trails. A must-visit if you’re in Kanchanaburi!

Erawan Waterfall is a truly beautiful place, surrounded by lush green forest and a peaceful natural atmosphere. The facilities are convenient and reasonably priced, making it easy for anyone to enjoy the trip without worry. The waterfall and the surrounding forest are well-preserved, and visitors from many countries come to experience its charm. The staff are kind, helpful, and attentive. They make sure everyone is safe, whether it’s providing life jackets or keeping an eye on the hiking areas. Food options are varied, and prices are fair with no hidden charges. There are also comfortable shuttle services to and from the town, which makes the whole trip even smoother. It’s the kind of place that leaves you with a warm feeling — the beauty, the friendly people, and the relaxing atmosphere all make you want to come back again

This national park has a ratger expensive admission (100THB for the locals and 300THB for the foreigners). Due to the popularity of this national park, getting into the park by car including the waiting time at the entrance for payment would take at least half hour. Howwver, there are plenty of parking spaces which drivers do not have to worry about. The park is huge so consider spending at least whole day. There are 7 levels of waterfalls and each of them has its own uniqueness and difficulty. Overall the exprience was not too good because there are simply too many people, but I would recommend to visit there at least once in your lifetime.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Erawan National Park is one of the best attractions in Kanchanaburi. It has seven beautiful waterfall levels, each with clear blue water where you can swim and relax. The hike to the top takes about 1.5–2 hours, and the trail is well-marked. There are food stalls, rest areas, and clean facilities near the entrance. Best to visit early in the morning to avoid the crowd and enjoy the cooler weather. Highly recommended for nature and adventure lovers! 🌿💧

300 Baht for foreigners. There are 7 levels(waterfalls). It took about 90 minutes to complete (from bottom to top & back down to the bottom), with short photo stops & excluding swimming. It can get steep at some point but it's all worth it. Make sure to bring lots of water, towels, change of clothes & a little cash & good vibes!

An amazing park with lots of pools and waterfalls, with seven points having a really convenient, organized entrance that is worth the price. The hike up the mountain to waterfall 7 is both beautiful and pleasant on clear, cold days. We spent 3 hours there without anyone noticing. It was amazing, highly recommend.

Must go place.. it is amazing to be such a beautiful waterfall. Well maintained, opens at 8 AM go as early as possible as you can spend lot of time at each levels of the fall. It has 7 levels , clean torquise water level 2 and 4, 5 are personal fav.

I think what I liked most about this museam would be the artistry and story telling. Here you will learn not only about WW2 but also important changes of power over the centuries. Through the wall of art you will learn about multiple struggles between Loas, Cambodia, Thailand, Bruma and Vietnam. In addition to learning about royalty and local customs. The museam is situation as the main attraction but has several stores and eateries around it. Of course the landscape is gorgeous and something I have emphasized within this review.

The museum itself is not very big, neither are there really informative signs. But there are many pictures at display here. The shocking pictures are horrifying, and it shows you how cruel the history was at the place where you are standing at. Recommended for a visit!

Not so much to say about the place. When you get there, you need to see a 9-minute video presentation about the history of the railway construction on how the prisoners of war built it. On how the prisoners of war was maltreated, and how many people have died during that time. Taking photos are not allowed inside the museum. The museum is the jump off area to the railway by speed boat.

Pretty run down and brief, basically a bunch of old photo prints and some paintings. The few artifacts they do have are pretty average with some clearly not being from the period or related at all

Nov 2020. 50 baht. They tried, but this is basically a bunch of tired old photos and paintings in a gallery. A few old war relics in a case round out an underwhelming tour. Allow 10 mins. The Death Railway museum (Thailand-Burma Railway Centre) is the best memorial museum in the city.

Great place to pop and visit after a walk across the Bridge over the river Kwai. Only 50 baht to enter so its as cheap as chips.

A really interesting place so much more than I've posted lots of history here

A very unique restaurant by the waterfront. Perfect for a date or family gathering. This place is usually packed but we came on a Tuesday night and it is a lot less crowded. The food is delightful and the service is excellent. Top notch.

Fried chicken was really good, they have aircon dining hall and river side tables. It was really worthwhile to try this restaurant. Mocha was good, too.

Great view and atmosphere. Awesome food and service. We ordered local vegetable stir fry, Sun omelette (omelette with rice and shrimp) and fish tom yam. They were all tasty. The fish had no bone at all. Rice was good too, soft and warm. The desserts were great too. We ordered some-shun and tiny mango in syrup. Really love them. The music was very as well.

Excellent food. But for a nice, more pricey restaurant why are you using single use plastics?? Cutlery wrapped in plastic. Drinks in plastic cups. So disappointing to see this. You can do better than this!

Here for lunch with friends. Splendid place!! Food is super with great river view. Perfect place. Live the deep fried small local fishes. Their omelette is also interesting!

WHAT A GOOD PLACE WITH GOOD FOOD AT THE KWAI RIVERSIDE AS WELL, YOU CAN HAVE VERY GOOD AND YUMMY FOOD WITH NATURAL BREEZE, SEEING THE GOOD SCENERY OF KANCHANABURI'S ATTRACTION IN THE SAME TIME. IT'S SO NICE TO VISIT HERE FOR SPENDING THE TIME WITH FAMILY

Plenty of fish based dishes, very unique dishes if northern Thailand. Relaxed atmosphere in a modern building with option to seat in river.

Had a great meal at On’s! The staff were lovely and the food was excellent, absolutely massive portions! I had the Tom yum which came with tofu and veggies, and the ginger tea which was great too (super fiery and refreshing!). 100% recommend to people whether you’re vegetarian or not.

A vegetarian restaurant with many fully vegan options. The restaurant is located in the heart of Kanchanaburi’s backpackers street and caters mostly to foreigners. Seems they modify their dishes to fit foreigners palate which in my opinion really takes away from the authentic Thai flavor. The food is clean and portions are huge, prices are moderate. Good restaurant, just not my favorite.

A must-visit in Kanchanaburi! Delicious food with generous portions, friendly staff who can adjust dishes to your needs, and a cozy, homely atmosphere. They also offer Vegetarian cooking classes for just 800 THB (3 dishes + 1 dessert). My favorite spot in town!

Super restaurant. Very friendly, really tasty vegetarian food. Prices very reasonable. Can highly recommend the cooking course at 900 bhatt per person. As a 2 we did 8 dishes. Really fun and interesting 2 hours making dishes from the menu. And it tasted great. Come and enjoy.

After eating here several times, we decided to do the cooking class with On. We really wanted a real cooking lesson, in an intimate and warm environment to learn as much as possible and soak it all in - and it's not always easy when you're vegan! On was super cute, fun and insightful! We learned a lot but above all we had lotsa fun, and the food was so so delicious! Thanks On for your knowledge and energy See you soon, Edo & Mario

Best meal I had in Thailand! I had the curry fried rice at On’s Thai Issan, and it was the best dish of my whole trip. I am not even vegan, but the flavors were just perfect — rich, tasty, and spicy enough. The place is small and cozy, and the people are really friendly. If you're in Kanchanaburi, this spot is a must-try. Great food, great vibe!

When I went here I was eating the same food since a month and my mouth went in ecstasy for the entire night. Wow. Even if I'm a no-spicy person, I tried the Massaman curry and I loved it. My face was burning but I was still eating, such a great taste. Another good thing is the pineapple shake and the papaya salad is super fresh! The staff is kind and funny, we danced together and made a lot of videos. The service is a it slow but I appreciated the calm atmosphere. They don't run, the cook with love. Thank you so much, see you next time♥️

Large area, great view and lots of seats and tables both indoor with AC and outdoor. Great place for family, friends, couple or work trip. Plenty of parking. Cafe is spacious and serves variety of drinks and cakes. Great food with good taste.

Tucked in the middle of nowhere, this restaurant is highly recommended if you are nearby. The food was authentic and tasted really good. And the place is huge! Pineapple rice had a special spice added to it. The cabbage although looked simple, it was well seasoned. The fried veggie was served with a really good unique sauce. The otah was out of the world. Only wish the fish was in the middle of the pot rather than the bottom. The coconut lime seafood soup was more sour unlike the usual milk coconut base. The river snail with veggies was also good. The curry had a spicy punch to it. Dessert was preserved mango which is apparently very hard to find even in Thailand!

Absolutely amazing Thai food and service! The staff really made a difference — warm, attentive, and so friendly, they made our dinner extra special. Me and my parents had such an enjoyable evening at this beautiful restaurant. The surroundings are spacious, with lots of greenery, giving it a calm and relaxing vibe. You must try the fried fish — it’s so good, crispy on the outside, tender inside, and packed with flavour. Definitely a place I’d love to come back to!

Great spot for authentic Thai food in Kanchanaburi. This is in the same family of Keeree Tara River Kwai restaurant. We had Tom Yum Kung, fried snakehead fish with sour mango sauce, Khao Pad Kung, and fried spring rolls—all delicious and up to standard. The restaurant is huge, with a beautiful garden and an amazing mountain view. Service was excellent, and the place is super clean—you can tell they take hygiene seriously, even in the bathrooms. Plus, it’s reasonably priced—1,800 baht for two adults and two older kids. Highly recommended.

After a long day of traveling, we headed to this wonderful restaurant for lunch. It was crowded, but the space was spacious. The food was delicious and the service was impressive. 💙🙏

Another gem. Fantastic place for authentic thai cuisine. Verified by my thai friends who visited with me. Most commented that it is authentic, legit and true to their roots. I cannot remember the name of the dishes, but every single thing we had, was definitely worth the calories. Service staff was attentive and overall excellent. Atmosphere was divine. Worth a visit if you are around Kanchanaburi.

You cannot missed this place if you visit kanchanaburi. The food also great and the view ofcourse it was amazing . Their restaurant and cafe is separate and it was spacious.the staffs are very friendly and the service was very good . Recommended .

Probably the night market with the largest offering in kanchanaburi. Love how most stalls offer small servings, so u can leave your stomach to try different foods. Be careful not to over-order as the temptations are real!

Great night market. Very convenient if you are staying in the River Kwai road area. On rainy nights the vendors may pack up early so plan accordingly. Pro tips: there is a Hoy Tod seller towards the back left corner that makes delicious food as well as a Laarb seller in the middle left. The sellers form a corridor that causes you to go around like a maze, I recommend that you do an entire lap and look at everything and then double back and make your purchases. Then if there is anything else you need you can hit seben right across the street. I go to this JJ market every time I visit Kanchanaburi now!

Great place to look at food or clothes stalls . There is many to look at and choose from it was a good place to visit

Nice market. There is nowhere to sit, and no bin, everyone piles trash up on the sidewalk. Personally I find it overstimulating because it’s very busy and impossible to rest. The children’s play area is great tho, 30 baht for 20 mins on the bouncy castle and trampolines and you can buy and paint plaster figurines. Also if you get some food and drinks before you take your kids there, you can sit down and eat at the kids painting table. Theres even a small garbage bin there! My daughter left her sandals there and we came back the next day and they were still there. The massages are outside of the market stalls, to the far left, if your facing into the market from the street. 30 mins for 100 baht and it was incredible. Also there are toilet there, you have to pay 3 baht in small coins into a turnstile, but the toilets are very clean, there a woman in there with a sewing machine who will mind your stuff

Such a good night market, there's almost anything for everyone. Too bad today is raining. You can get lots of great food, for almost every palate and every taste. Also the non food item stalls are a plenty... Will try come back if there is no rain. Really enjoyed my short time visiting.

Great food 😅 just make sure to leave some space until you completely done in the food area, some really nice tasty desserts and very very cheap. Head through a little earlier than when it's dark. I went late the night before and there wasn't as much food stalls as there was tonight.

A truly amazing array of foods, to suit the very adventurous and the not-so-adventurous. Everything from chicken on a stick to butterfly pupae and wok-fried crickets. It's all there! Fantastic

Amazing place! Very cozy atmosphere and delicious food. I like that you can choose level of spiciness. We got mild tom yam kung and no spicy fish in lime and chili soup. Happy that we chose this restaurant for our dinner.

So nice. Relaxing. Yummy eats. Very chill setting. Looking for fancy - not your spot. 4 people, 2 strawberry smoothies, 1 banana smoothie, 2 large beers + 4 mains = 1.1k thb. So good.

We had a lovely meal in this restaurant. Good to find some mediterranean meals for a little break while traveling. I had a chicken steak some chips and veggies. The view is amazing A few mosquitos around but they have mosquito spray there to apply which was amazing

Excellent! Lovely place, we sat by the river and there's lovely fairy lights and bug spray. We had morning glory (this is a given for every meal for us in thailand) and i had the Kaeng Liang Shrimp soup mild, which was still quite spicy but very tasty - just like i like it! My partner had the chicken steak and she did thoroughly enjoy it! Banana and coconut milk is delicious, we tried as curious

Lovely restaurant with amazing views and vibes - the staff were lovely and the food was delicious. Can’t complain

Oct 2025 Nice ambience by the river. Attentive staff. Reasonable price.

While it’s tempting to sit under the bridge, the food leaves something to be desired. Perhaps the worst Thai meal I’ve ever had. I hate to say that because staff is nice, etc, but even spring rolls were soggy and awful. I wouldn’t recommend at all!
