Sai Yok Noi Waterfall, Kanchanaburi

Hope this is not disappointed you, it is rather small or we could call tiny waterfall in summer time. Normally it would be lot of water like it shows in one of postcard I bought there.
Close up of water from top to down.


Overall view, there were some foreigners visiting here and they were wearing bikini or swimming wear while mostly local people were wearing shorts and T-shirt.


At the end of it, this was most deepest water scale and kids were enjoy it still.


I tried to put my feet into water, and it was really cool. It was very contrast with hot temperature of that day. No wonder why many kids just sang them self in water like that.

Death Railway, Kanchanaburi

Typical train in Thailand, it is called 3rd class. The lowest class we have, it runs daily along country side. I got this photo during our trip to Kanchaburi, where I post earlier about WWII Crematory.
The famous Death Railway created during WWII, now becomes tourist places. Beauty of the sadness.
The view from the train head, we are heading to Sai Yok Noi Waterfall, and we are on the railway of history.View from the backside of train, once we are leaving to Bangkok. In the evening, there is no tourist at all.

WWII Cemetery in Kanchaburi

I visited there with friends during February this year, and the Cemetery was the last spot we stopped by. It is opposite the Railway Station, about 1 kilometre from town, it contains the remains of 6,982 war prisoners who lost their lives during the construction of the "Death Railway". The staff is taking very good care of places, it is all clean with nice flower decoration in which showing full respect to all the dead.


We were allowed to walk around and showing our respect, I've read some of name panel and feel very shocked that some were very young at their age. War is really cruel!

No war can bring peace.
