Kanchanaburi War Cemetery Review

This war cemetery in Kanchanaburi was built as a memorial for soldiers who lost their lives while serving the cause. It was very sad to see young boys sacrificing themselves, and the message on each tomb makes you wanna cry.

Phanmit Don Rak Cemetery is a cemetery of war prisoners being asked by Japanese to make the Death Railway. It is a very sad learning center.

The War Cemetery is just 10 minutes walk from the Kanchanaburi train station. There is only a brief history write out both in English and Thai. A peaceful place to pay respect to those who had sacrifice building the River Kwai Bridge and railways.

Nearly 7,000 Allied prisoners of war from Britain, the Netherlands, Australia, Canada and the United States were buried at the Beibeifu Allied Cemetery. During World War II, the Japanese army captured a large number of European and American prisoners of war in the battlefield of Southeast Asia and escorted them to Thailand to build the Thai-Burmese Railway. Among them, the Guihe Bridge was the most famous one, and was called the "Death Railway" because of the loss of a large number of prisoners of war and migrant workers. During the war, prisoners of war who lost their lives were buried everywhere at will. After the war, the Allies collected and reorganized the remains of the Allies and re-buried them. In fact, Europe and the United States also have a heroic plot "where the mountains are buried loyalty, why the horse leather shroud ring". In any case, we should respect those who have sacrificed for peace and bear in mind the suffering that the Japanese aggressors have brought to China and other Asian countries, as well as to the people of Europe and the United States. The Allied Cemetery is not far from Beibeifu Railway Station. It's OK to go out and hit a beeper train. Each person can travel 5 baht (equivalent to RMB 1 yuan) one way, which can be reached in 5 minutes. The Doodle will be waiting for you at the door. Cemeteries are free of charge for access and visits. The cemetery was very solemn and tidy. Usually one and a half hours. When you enter the cemetery, you must keep quiet and behave appropriately.

And found "Kan" again, Nachaburi 😎 Don Rak Allied Military Cemetery" or "United Nations Military Cemetery" or what people in Kanchanaburi generally call "British Cemetery" is a large cemetery on an area of 17 rai, containing the corpses of war prisoners who died during the construction of the Death Railway to 6,982 holes by Che 300 war prisoners died in asthma and buried at the Nikke Camp (about 15 kilometers before the three pagodas checkpoint). The rest is from the tombs of war prisoners in various camps. And there is also a Chong Kai Mausoleum which the Thai government and the Allied force agreed on August 24, B.E. 1954 to build these two mausoleums. The atmosphere in the cemetery is quiet and shady. The interior area is neatly decorated and beautiful. Above every tomb is a brass tablet inscribed, the name, age and country of the dead. The last line is a mourning commemorating.

Don Rak Cemetery is a learning center for veterans.
