Erawan National Park

Erawan National Park, located in Kanchanaburi Province, is one of Thailand's most enchanting natural wonders. Spanning over 550 square kilometers, the park is most famous for its Erawan Waterfall, a seven-tiered cascade that resembles the mythical three-headed elephant "Erawan" from Hindu mythology. Each of the seven tiers boasts its own unique charm, with crystal-clear emerald pools formed from limestone deposits. Visitors can climb through the lush jungle trails to explore all seven levels, with each stop offering stunning views, natural water slides, and inviting pools perfect for swimming. The lower tiers are the easiest to access and tend to be more crowded, while the higher levels reward hikers with a quieter, more serene atmosphere, where the sound of cascading water and birdsong dominates the air.

Beyond the waterfall, Erawan National Park is a haven for wildlife and biodiversity. The park is home to a variety of animals, including long-tailed macaques, gibbons, giant squirrels, and colorful kingfishers, making it a paradise for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers. Visitors can also explore the park’s fascinating limestone caves such as Phra That Cave and Mi Cave, where mysterious stalactites and stalagmites create otherworldly formations. For those seeking a more immersive experience, the park features nature trails, campsites, and picnic areas, allowing guests to spend more time surrounded by the pristine forest. Whether you're hiking up to the top of the waterfall, swimming in its cool turquoise pools, or simply relaxing amidst the beauty of nature, Erawan National Park offers an unforgettable escape into one of Thailand's most extraordinary landscapes.

Before booking your trip to explore this national park, we recommend that you carefully review the highlight photos, itinerary, and details provided below.

Erawan Waterfall - The most beautiful one.

A Journey Through Paradise

The turquoise blue waters of Erawan are perhaps its most captivating feature. Sparkling under the dappled sunlight, the pools look almost unreal – like nature's own version of a crystal-clear paradise. As you hike through the shaded forest trails, the sound of rushing water gently echoes, inviting you to immerse yourself in this serene escape.

Each tier of the waterfall offers something unique:

• First Tier – The Welcome Pool
  A calm and wide pool at the base, perfect for relaxing and letting the cool water wash away the day’s fatigue.
• Second Tier – Nature’s Bathtub
  Water tumbles over smooth limestone, forming shallow pools where fish swim freely, nibbling curiously at your feet.
• Third Tier – The Hidden Gem
  Small caves form beneath the cascading water, inviting adventurers to explore or simply sit under the falls and feel the soft splash.
• Fourth & Fifth Tiers – A View From Above
  Here, the waterfall narrows and falls gracefully into emerald pools surrounded by tall, ancient trees. The contrast of white froth against the green forest feels like a painting brought to life.
• Sixth Tier – The Secret Sanctuary
  Surrounded by rocks and tropical foliage, this secluded spot offers peace, perfect for sitting and letting the sounds of nature soothe your soul.
• Seventh Tier – The Peak of Majesty
  At the highest point, the water cascades like a silver ribbon down mossy stones, completing its journey with the grace of a ballet dancer.

Tham Krasae and the Bridge on the River Kwai – The seeds of war have blossomed into flowers.

Trains are a symbol of tourism in Kanchanaburi. Two significant train stations, Tham Krasae and The Bridge on the River Kwai Station, stand as a stark contrast to war. "War brings only destruction," yet these remnants remain and have transformed into tourist attractions. As the scenery shifted from devastation, beauty began to emerge – the classic charm of the structures and the surrounding landscapes make it "hard to believe that this is what remains from war." Let's go and see for ourselves.

Sai Yok, Thai Railway, Waterfall, and Prasat Muang Singh

Kanchanaburi offers numerous significant and diverse tourist attractions, all conveniently located within a short distance of one another, making it ideal for travelers looking to enrich their sightseeing experiences.

In Sai Yok, you will find:

• An old railway station, a historic site showcasing the pioneering days of Thai trains. The retired “E-Haeb” locomotive is displayed here, a relic from Thailand's earliest railroads.
• The beautiful Sai Yok Waterfall, a natural gem that captivates visitors with its serene flow and lush surroundings.
• An important archaeological site, the Prasat Muang Singh, which stands as a testament to ancient history and cultural heritage.

All of these experiences will become a memorable part of your personal travel codex, recording the beauty and knowledge gained from this journey.

The Attraction: War Cemetery.

The Kanchanaburi War Cemetery, also known as the Don-Rak War Cemetery, is a poignant memorial located in Kanchanaburi, Thailand. It serves as the final resting place for over 6,900 Allied prisoners of war (POWs) who perished during the construction of the infamous Death Railway in World War II. Maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, the cemetery is a solemn site filled with neatly aligned headstones, each bearing the names and details of the fallen soldiers from countries such as the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Australia. Visitors to the cemetery are often struck by its peaceful atmosphere, which contrasts with the tragic history that it commemorates.

Situated near the center of Kanchanaburi town, the cemetery is a reminder of the harsh conditions and forced labor that POWs endured under Japanese occupation. Most of the soldiers buried here died while working on the railway, a project marked by intense suffering, disease, and malnutrition. The well-kept grounds, lush green lawns, and carefully maintained gravestones reflect the respect and honor given to the fallen heroes. For many visitors, it is a place for reflection and remembrance, offering a powerful connection to the past and a tribute to the sacrifices made during one of history's darkest periods.
