The Bridge on the River Kwai, Kanchanaburi 🌉 If you visit Kanchanaburi and don't stop by, it's like you haven't been here. This is a must-see landmark for both Thais and international tourists.

✨ The highlight is the black, arched steel bridge spanning the Kwai Yai River. Built during World War II, it offers a wealth of history, but today, it's a tranquil setting, surrounded by stunning river and mountain views. Every angle is stunning, especially during sunset, when the atmosphere is truly romantic.

📍 Location: The bridge is located in Kanchanaburi city, a 2.5- to 3-hour drive from Bangkok. For a more retro feel, take the Death Railway (Thonburi-Namtok Railway) and get off at the Kwai Yai Bridge station. It's a truly relaxing experience.

🚶♀️ Walking along the bridge is a popular activity, offering a panoramic view of both sides of the river. Sometimes, trains even pass by slowly, offering stunning photo opportunities.

🍲 There are also riverside restaurants and charming cafes nearby, perfect for a relaxing afternoon. For those who prefer a scenic boat ride, there are also river cruises available.
