How to get there?

Kanchanaburi, is a spectacular province which takes around 4 hours from Bangkok.

You can choose to travel by bus, car, or train depending on your preference. But we chose to travel by train to enjoy the scenery along the way. Meet my travel buddies for this trip, P'Nad, Moth, Bow and Guy.

What's in there?

Upon arriving at Kanchanaburi, our first destination was the Erawan Waterfalls. What makes this waterfall so remarkable is its blue waters with hungry fishes wanting to feast on your dead skin cells. The sensation is quite weird at first but it gets very relaxing once you get used to it. You need to protect your sensitive parts though to be safe (if you know what I mean :D ).

Then, we called to Ananta River Hills Resort to pick us up from Erawan Falls to our accommodation by van. After less than an hour, we have arrived to the resort, and we were all completely amazed! Here's what it looks like.

And this one is my personal favorite. It was taken while I was kayaking during sunrise. The surrounding is so magical.

As an avid traveller, I've been to a lot of resorts before, but I must say, this one is the best I've ever been. And the best part is, I just spent around 75 USD (excluding airfare) for the entire trip (2 days 2 nights). It was the best 75 USD I've ever spent. Credits to my Thai friends for carefully planning this trip.
