Discover what’s inside the War Museum

This somber museum was built to seem exactly like a real prisoner of war camp. The museum is run by a monk and is located on the grounds of Wat Chai Chumphon. It gives visitors a glimpse into the harsh realities of life in these camps. The exhibits include written narratives from actual prisoners of war, their family members, and authors who interviewed POWs, as well as bunks, photographs, and other original things. The names of the countries engaged in these events inspired the museum's name: Japan, England, Australia/USA, Thailand, and Holland. #museumquest#travelguide#historicculture#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

#summervacation #bestislandtraveltowns River kwai bridge is the must visit destination in kanchanaburi. The real bridge on the River Kwai was never destroyed, not even damaged. It still stands on the edge of the Thai jungle about three miles from this peaceful town and it has become something of a tourist attraction. The bridge was erected by Allied pris oners during the Japanese occupation of Thailand in World War II. #bestislandtraveltowns#summervacation
