📍 Death Railway • River Kwai Bridge River Khwae Bridge Bridge River Kwai Bridge The "Death Railway" in Beibifu, Thailand, is located in the center of Beibifu, about three hours' drive from Bangkok. The "death railway" was built by Japan in order to occupy Myanmar and connect Thailand to Myanmar during World War II. The reason why this railway was called "death" was because more than 100,000 prisoners of war were sacrificed for the construction of the railway at that time, and it took six years to complete the construction of the railway, under the oppression of the Japanese army. It took only 17 months to complete. The Kwai River Bridge is part of the Death Railway. It was blown up in World War II to cut off supplies to the Japanese army, but the Thai government bought back the railway and spent years and manpower rebuilding the bridge to keep the original appearance of the period. Now the "Guihe Bridge" has become an important tourist attraction in Beibifu. Passengers can walk on the bridge and watch the train pass by super close. There are many shops around to buy souvenirs for passengers, and there are many restaurants nearby, where you can enjoy the scenery of the Guihe while dining. 💲 average consumption per person: free, no admission fee 🗺 Address: across the Kwai Yai River, Tha Ma Kham, Mueang Kanchanaburi District, Chang Wat Kanchanaburi 71000, Thailand #Thailand Attractions #Thailand #Overseas Tour #Beibi #Death Railway #Guihe Bridge #thailand #kanchanaburi #riverkwai
