Suggested attractions & activities for Kanchanaburi Featuring WWII History, Local Way of Life & the Wild Located approximately 140kms or about 2.5hr drive west of Bangkok, Kanchanaburi boasts some of Thailand’s most beautiful waterfalls in the jungles and some of the world-renowned WWII sites: Bridge over the River Kwai, the Death Railway and Hellfire Pass. In addition to that visitors can also immerse themselves in a slow and peaceful life of the Mon villagers at Sangkhla Buri village near border to Myanmar. Accommodations on offer here range from raft house on the river in the jungle, homestay in a local village and camping in the national park. For visitors who do not have much time, a quick stop at Don Rak or Kanchanaburi War Cemetery i.e. an important WWII memorial site where the prisoners of war who had died while building the railway were buried and Thailand - Myanmar Railway Centre next to it will give you an overview of how cruel the situation was during the war. Another must see attraction is the River Kwai Bridge. If you have some time, take a Death Railway train from River Kwai Bridge. Seats on the left offer better view but must be reserved when purchase the tickets. This steel bridge is one of most important historical landmarks and WWII memorials in Thailand as it was part of the “Death Railway” lines. The train slowly goes across the river, through some lush jungles then on the edge of the cliff along the river. Get off at Tham Krasae Cave where it marks the start of the long viaduct by the cliff built by the Prisoners of War during WWII as part of the Death Railway. -

My Kwai… an Unabridged Account of Travelling the Thai River Region That Inspired a Movie Legend
TRAVEL My Kwai… AN UNABRIDGED ACCOUNT OF TRAVELLING THE THAI RIVER REGION THAT INSPIRED A MOVIE LEGEND bout 120 kilometres northwest of Bangkok, nestled against the Myanmar border, lies the province of Kanchanaburi. The province’s capital town – perhaps a little confusingly, also known as Kanchanaburi – is home to some 30,000 residents and swollen all-year-round with a never-ending tide of tourists. Notoriously, the province is home to the Death Railway – the Burma-Thailand line built by prisoners-of-war under the watchful eyes of the Japanese occupying forces of World War II. ATo many, it will be best known for its starring role in The Bridge On the River Kwai, the 1957 movie that told the tale of the construction of this infamous project. The movie, though, was actually filmed in Sri Lanka – although The Deer Hunter, Michael Cimino’s 1978 Academy Award-winning film, genuinely was filmed here. Over the years, historians – and politicians of various hues – have taken issue with The Bridge On the River Kwai’s take on this controversial episode. Both its geography and its depiction of the inhumane conditions of the POWs toiling over its construction have been greatly disputed. 150 151 TRAVEL Today, the bridge seen by many visitors is not though, and the way that the items have been left Many that come to revisit the past, find themselves the original one.

<I>Ramboldia</I> in Thailand
MYCOTAXON Volume 110, pp. 109–123 October–December 2009 New or otherwise interesting lichens from the tropics, including the lichen genus Ramboldia in Thailand Klaus Kalb1, Kawinnat Buaruang2, Khwanruan Papong3 & Kansri Boonpragob2 [email protected] Lichenologisches Institut Neumarkt Im Tal 12, D-92318 Neumarkt, Germany 2Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Ramkhamhaeng University Huamak, Bangkok 10240, Thailand 3Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Mahasarakham University Kantarawichai, Maha Sarakham Province 44150, Thailand Abstract — Acanthothecis dialeucoides, Gassicurtia marbachii, G. nordinii, Kalbographa lueckingii, Malcolmiella duplomarginata, M. piae and Ramboldia siamensis are described as new to science. Range extensions are reported for Diorygma soozanum (from Thailand) and Ramboldia haematites (from Taiwan). Graphina reniformis var. subasteroidea is an Acanthothecis species of uncertain specific allocation. A key for the identification of Ramboldia species in Thailand is presented. Key words — Graphidaceae, Lecanoraceae, Physciaceae, Pilocarpaceae Introduction Interest in tropical lichens has increased significantly during the last decade, resulting in many new monographs and contributions to the tropical lichen biota [e.g. Aptroot et al. (2008, 2009), Archer (2007), Bungartz et al. (2007), Cáceres (2007), McCarthy (ed., 2009), Frisch & Kalb (2006), Galloway (2007), Kalb et al. (2004), Lücking (2008), Lücking & Caceres (2004), Marbach (2000), Moberg (2004), Rivas Plata et al. (2006), Sipman (2002)]. These (and many more) have extended our knowledge of lichenized fungi considerably. Nevertheless we are still far from having a complete inventory of these organisms occurring in tropical countries, and can only approach this goal step by step and this paper provides a further small step. Materials and methods Most of the material used for study is housed in the private herbarium of the senior author (KK), but specimens from herbaria such as B, G, H, M, RAMK and S were investigated for comparison. -

Description of project activity A.1. Purpose and general description of project activity The proposed Papop Biogas Project (“the proposed project activity”) involves the installation of a new Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (“UASB”) for wastewater treatment and biogas recovery at the Thai San Miguel Liquor (“TSML”) distillery (“TSML distillery”) located in Amphor Tha Muang, Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand. The proposed project activity is being implemented by the Papop Renewable Company Limited (“Papop”) as a builder, operator, transfer scheme, which will be handed over to TSML after a period of 9 years. The TSML distillery produces alcohol spirits and as a part of the production process generates large amounts of wastewater, which has high organic matter content. Currently, wastewater is treated in an anaerobic lagoon and the anaerobic conditions lead to the production of biogas that is released directly to the atmosphere. -

Ancient City Gate 8 9 Located 130 km. west of Bangkok, just a two-hour drive away, the small town of Kanchanaburi is the capital of Thailand’s third-largest province, which covers almost 20,000 square kilometres and stretches as far west as the border with Myanmar The province boasts some of the country’s most beautiful waterfalls and caves in its national parks, as well as the historic bridge over the River Kwai and exciting activities like rafting trips. Thus, it is an ideal spot to explore the Thai countryside without travelling too far from Bangkok. Kanchanaburi has lots of character, and is a great place to stay in raft houses on the river. There are many places worth visiting around town, but top of most people’s list are the bridge and the war museums that chronicle the building of the infamous “Death Railway” across the River Kwai and on Myanmar during World War II. The hills and valleys are scattered with intriguing temples and historical sites, and the lush wooded landscapes are ideal for cycling, trekking, raft trips or elephant rides. City Attractions The Bridge over the River Kwai Situated just to the north of the town, this bridge was made famous by the 1957 film “Bridge over the River Kwai” by David Lean, though in fact the movie portrayed a wooden bridge that was constructed earlier. -
