Who is interested in what Thais think about the bridge. The OP is posting on a majority farang forum asking other farangs what they think would be interesting. You have expressed your narrow minded view, thanks for that. However I would suggest that many, if not most farangs who are in anyway familiar with the plight of those who built the bridge, original or otherwise, Hellfire pass and associated structures, would find all WW11 related areas of interest. As I mentioned earlier, it's not just about the bridge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I mentioned earlier, it's not just about the bridge. It's small and unimpressive. The caves and waterfalls out that way are better. Thailand has dozens of great tropical islands and a simple bridge isn't anything compared the real attractions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacuisse Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 All over Thailand. Get an International Driving Permit, take a course in defensive driving, then come to Thailand in low season. Good hotels can be had for 500 baht a day, hire a car for 800 baht a day. Provided the OP is not distracted by the female delights, he can tour all of Thailand on 2000 baht a day.

And all day train ride for a couple of hundred baht? Your idea of what a tourist trap is just boggles my mind. And your denigration of the cemetery and the men that were killed by the forced labor is a great indicator of the quality of man you are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I am more concerned with the purity of a substance than separating the components, but I was referring to a mixture of totally different elements. Go back to kenk24's post #20; he said, a new car showroom. Apparently, he was referring to a term I used to differentiate a young inexperienced woman from a more widely used one--the former still having that new car smell.
