Nice pics Stamp. That road ends kinda weirdly, dangerous like though.

Never been to Kanchanaburi myself, afraid I may cry thing of all the allies who were murdered (dunno if that's the right word, but fairly close I think) there working on the bridge--60,000.

At the same time 100,000 Asian laborers died there, too.

Lest we forget.

The Colonel here, just helping Stamp out as this is the 3rd largest province in Thailand and a great place for a week-end or longer.

This is me views of Kan as one lives there on the week-ends:-

Did you know that we have our own Beach in Kan ?

Three Pagodas Pass

This pass approximately 22 kilometers from Sangkhla Buri.

This rugged Thai-Burmese border was once a strategic military route for both the Thai and Burmese; however, it is currently a small border market.

The three miniature pagodas are memorials to the traditional invasion route favoured by Burmese soldiers during the Ayutthaya period (1350-1767).

Visitors wishing to visit Myanmar are advised to obtain a pass, which allows visitors to visit Burmese settlements from Sangkhla Buri Immigration Office. A Fee of US$10 is applied. The border opens between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m., depending on the political situation.

Mon Bridge.

Also known locally as Uttamanuson Bridge, the bridge links Sangkhla Buri and Mon villages. Thailand's longest wooden bridge, it is 850 meters long and crosses Maenam Songkaria.
