Sai Yok National Park is not as well developed as the other national parks, but it is Kanchanaburi's most accessible wilderness areas. Inside the main entrance of the park you can find limestone caves, the remains of a bridge on the Death Railway and Japanese ranges (actually little more than piles of bricks). There is also a network of clear streams that bubble up from sources in the park, and a cave where people want to see clouds of bats stream out at dusk. Unfortunately the park is not a detailed hiking maps or much in the way of visitor information to English speakers.
When people come to Thailand, one of the first things they want to visit the Bridge on the River Kwai. Famous by the 1957 film starring Alec Guinness, William Holden and Jack Hawkins, the bridge is one of the largest tourist attractions in Thailand today.
Located just 129km from Bangkok, Kanchanburi is also a favourite holiday destination for Bangkokians and other Thais residing in the central region.Most foreigners when they think of Kanchanaburi they think of the River Kwai Bridge and the history of the Second World War. Kanchanaburi however, has so much more in the way of waterfalls, mountains, dams, fishing, boating, trekking and cave exploration. Sai Yok National Park is very popular.
The province is most famous for The Bridge Over the River Kwai, which was built next to the town of Kanchanaburi crossing the Mae Klong river. The Death Railway ran all the way from the Kwae river valley up to the Three Pagodas Pass. Today only the lowest part of the railway to Nam Tok is still in use. In Kanchanaburi city, there is a war museum and a large cemetery of prisoners of war who died during construction of the Death Railway.
Nine Army War History national park (Uttayan Haeng Chart Songkram Kao Tab) located at Ladya field, Tambon Chongsadao. It’s around 40 kilometers from Kanchanaburi downtown. This place has provided historical evidence of the nine army war. The nine army war was the war between King Rama I of Thailand and King Padung of Burma. The war ended as a victorious one for Thailand.
In the Sai Yok district, there is a Buddhist Tiger Temple where tame tigers roam freely once a day. Also in Sai Yok is the Mueang Sing historical park, ruins of a Khmer town and temple, as well as the Sai Yok National Park with the two Sai Yok waterfalls.

Mai Khao Beach is located on the northwest coast of Phuket this 11km, straight beach is still blessedly undeveloped as it is part of the Sirinat national park and the only significant constructions along it are Phuket International Airport near Nai Yang Beach'Mai Khao' means white wood in English and maybe this is a local joke because there are certainly no white trees along this beach! The sand is a little coarse, perhaps the coarsest in Phuket, but this is splendid isolation at its best and you can walk for kilometres without seeing anyone at all.
The May to November is closed due to the sharp drop season. If you are a plane spotter, the beach just north of the airport offers great vantage points from which to spot the incoming air traffic.
