The River Kwai is very famous. The famous film " The Bridge over the River Kwai " was shot about the railway built by prisoners of war. The film received 7 Oscar nominations and turned the river into a coveted tourist destination. Several settlements on the water are located along the coast, which receive tourists every day.
 Hotel on rafts on the River Kwai
Visitors to the River Kwai should definitely check out several locations. The main one is the railway, which was built by British prisoners of war in the jungle.

The next place is the hot springs, which should heal the joints of tourists. Three sources, each hotter than the last. To immerse yourself in the third spring, it took about 15 minutes to get used to the hot temperature.

The beauty of the Thai tourism business is plates, watches and other souvenirs with your photo.

(Such souvenirs are made in a few minutes). The first time we were very impressed. After bathing in hot springs, you need to refresh yourself with fruits.
Coconut is big and tasty
We arrived at the river after dark, but still we were struck by the village, completely standing on rafts in the water. There, in addition to rafts with dwelling houses, there were: raft - bar, raft - restaurant, raft - pool, raft - massage parlor.
 Evening at the hotel on rafts
In the morning we were awakened very early. The morning fog hung over the river. We were fed a light breakfast, unexpectedly they unhooked the raft on which we were eating and it floated downstream.

The people accompanying us handed us life jackets and threw us into the morning waters of the River Kwai.

After the rafting, after a couple of kilometers, we were caught and dragged onto a life raft. Rafting in the jungle is an unforgettable experience.

Our adventures on the River Kwai ended with a visit to the jungle monkeys. Thai monkeys turned out to be meaner and bolder than Indian monkeys.
