My favorite town in Thailand by Charliecbc
I lived in Kanchanaburi town for over a year and it was one of the happiest times of my life. Kanchanaburi province is a beautiful unspoiled land of wilderness and small towns rarely visited by western tourists. It is only 2 hours from Bangkok and there is plenty of accomodation and food options. The people are wonderful and alot of them speak english. You will discover that quite a few foreigners have settled down in this town. It is at the edge of a large mountain range and at night cool breezes blow down from the hills and are a welcome escape from the heat. There is ample nightlife and it is the perfect place to stay if you want to chill out in a typical provincial Thai town for a while and see what the country is really like outside of the tourist traps of Pattaya, Phuket, and Bangkok. I cannot explain how much I love this place. It will always be in my heart.
