The Kanchanaburi War Cemetery, or Don-Rak War Cemetery, serves as a poignant reminder of the thousands of Allied prisoners of war who lost their lives during the construction of the Burma Railway in World War II. Located in the vibrant town of Kanchanaburi, this site is immaculately maintained and contains nearly 7,000 graves of soldiers from Britain, Australia, and the Netherlands. A visit offers a profound reflection on the harsh conditions they endured and reminds travelers of the broader human costs of war.
