A short long-tail boat ride offers glimpses of a rural lifestyle along the canals of this province. Continue to Kanchanaburi for a photo stop at the famous bridge over the River Kwai. After lunch, visit the Thailand Burma Railway Center, an interactive museum, information, and research facility dedicated to presenting the history of the Thailand Burma Railway. The fully air-conditioned center offers the visitor an educational and moving experience.
