Workation in Kanchanaburi: the essentials
Kanchanaburi lies about 120 km west of Bangkok, where the Kwai Noi and Kwai Yai rivers meet, and its name is tied to the Death Railway built by prisoners of war for the Japanese army in World War II. The bridge, the war cemeteries and the museums keep that history close, while Erawan National Park with its waterfalls begins in the hills beyond. Floating guesthouses and riverside cafés line the water. Foreign residents are few, mostly retirees and history travellers, and March to May is hot and still. Don Mueang International Airport is about 115 km away, and a slow, scenic train runs from Bangkok.
