The atmosphere is good. If you go up in the morning, you can see the light fog. There is also a coffee shop. The prices are not expensive.

This war cemetery in Kanchanaburi was built as a memorial for soldiers who lost their lives while serving the cause. It was very sad to see young boys sacrificing themselves, and the message on each tomb makes you wanna cry.
