In-Depth Information
Another noteworthy site is Hellfire pass, or Konyu Cutting, where the railroad laborers had
to blast through by hand. Today there is an excellent museum and memorial there, and you
can walk down through the jungle listening to the audio guide.
You will pass Wat Pa Luangta Bua, better known as Tiger Temple for its furry attractions
but it is best to give this place a pass. The tigers are not treated well and generally it is a
tourist trap. If you want to volunteer with big animals contact the Elephants and Friends
Conservation Camp where you can help with the daily care of old, sick and mistreated ele-
phants. Another option for visiting and caring for elephants is Taweechai Elephant Camp
which is halfway between Kanchanaburi and Erawan Falls.
