West also has several cities worth visiting including Kanchanaburi which is famous for the Bridge over River Kwai and Hellfire Pass Memorial Museum. Another city not to be missed is Ratchaburi where you can explore ancient temples like Wat Phra Si Ratana Mahathat or take a boat ride along Mae Klong river to see local markets built on railway tracks.

Cultural highlights are abundant in West with many traditional festivals throughout the year such as Songkran (Thai New Year) celebrated every April where locals splash water on each other as part of their religious beliefs.
