Exotic Borderland Sangklaburi
[ 2D1N ] / JB 127
 

The scenery of two border towns in the enchanting west Thailand with their distinctive spells marks one of the most charming characteristics of Kanchanaburi. Riding on the elephant back in woodland, bamboo rafting on the mighty River Kwai and bullock-cart ride can be a wonderful adventure experience that you may never forget. Boat trip on the lake also offers you a dramatic view of the exotic hilly borderland – home to Three Pagodas Pass and Thailand’s most famous Wooden Bridge. Discover some cultural practices and traditional beliefs during a welcome ceremony at ethnic Karen village in the westernmost of Thailand. Added to this adventure and culture oriented trip is a remarkable site visit to WWII related Hellfire Pass and the POW’s discovered natural hot spa.
