The Death Railway contained a heavy history during World War II, when Japan forced the prisoners of war to build a railway connecting Bangkok, Thailand and Yangon, Myanmar. Tens of thousands of prisoners of war and workers lost their lives during the construction process, hence the name Death Railway. The current "Death Railway" has no such a sultry name as the name, but has become a famous sightseeing spot in Kanchanaburi. The "Death Railway" can mainly visit two sections, one is the River Kwai Bridge and the other is THAMKRA SAE.
