This well kept cemetery is also known as the Kanchanaburi War Cemetery. Here lie the remains of 6982 allied POW's who perished through the building of the Death Railway. Its a quiet spot, with well kept gardens, worth a look, and to remember those who went through such a terrible ordeal. It is just before the main part of Kanchanaburi town.
