Blessed with a spectacular natural landscape, several National Parks are located in the forests of the mountain area of the province - the Erawan, Sai Yok, Khao Laem, Khaoen Sri Nakarin and Chaloem Rattanakosin National Parks are located in the province.
Just over 150km west of bangkok, the province shares borders with Burma (West), and the provinces of Tak (North), Uthai Thani, Suphanburi, Nakhon Pathom (East) and Ratchaburi (South).
The main road through Kanchanaburi, "Thanon Saeng Chuto", runs the length of town from north to south, connecting the River Kwai Bridge, the train station and the bus station.
Kanchanaburi is the 3rd largest of Thailand's 76 provinces (19,483 s.km), just behind Nakhon Ratchasima and Chiang Mai, however has a population of only around 750,000.
