War Cemetery

War Cemetery Kanchanaburi (Don Rak Cemetery or United Nations Cemetery). It is located on Saeng Chuto Road, Mueang District, Kanchanaburi Province. This cemetery was the burial site of Confederate POWs who died during the construction of the Death Railroad. It is a 27,200 square meter cemetery where the bodies of 6,982 prisoners of war lie. The cemetery grounds are beautiful, covered with well-planted grass, and evoke the vicissitudes of the battle and its aftermath.

Jeath War Museum

The name JEATH comes from the countries involved in the construction of the Death Railway during World War II 1942-1945: Japan, England, America, Australia, Thailand and the Netherlands. And as the name suggests, this small museum features photographs and illustrations documenting the living conditions of prisoners of war (POWs) during that gruesome time. Some of these were donated by former POW survivors. The museum building itself was also diverted from the detention barracks used at that time.

Death Railway

The Death Railway Kanchanaburi was built during World War II by Allied prisoners and Asian laborers organized by the Japanese Army to build a strategic route through Myanmar. Currently, the terminus of this route is Ban Tha Sao or Namtok station. The distance to the waterfall from Kanchanaburi Station to Namtok Station is about 77 km. “The more sleepers, the more prisoners of war who were forced to build this railway died” – this is the story of the Thai-Burmese railway. The 415 km route reflects the brutality and hardships of the prisoners of war, which is why this railway is also called the “Death Railway”
