Sangkhlaburi, Kanchanaburi.

Sangkhlaburi is an interesting destination for a short 2-day, 1-night trip, offering a serene atmosphere and diverse culture: ### First Day **Morning:** Arrive at Sangkhlaburi from Bangkok by private car or van, which takes about 6-7 hours. It is recommended to start early in the morning to arrive by late morning. Upon arrival, stop for breakfast or coffee in the small town. Then, head to **Mon Bridge**, a landmark not to be missed. This wooden bridge is the longest wooden bridge in Thailand and connects the Mon community with the Thai people. Take a stroll on the bridge, observe the Mon people's way of life, and take beautiful photos of the Songkalia River. **Afternoon:** After walking on the Mon Bridge, take a boat to visit **Wat Wang Wiwekaram** (Wat Luang Pho Uttama) and **Sunken Temple**, which are the ruins of an old temple submerged underwater. The atmosphere here is peaceful and mysterious, especially during the dry season when the temple's structure is clearly visible. **Evening:** After a day of sightseeing, relax and have dinner by the river or in town. The local cuisine here is diverse, including Thai and Mon dishes such as Hang Lay curry and Mon grilled chicken. You can also find homestays or resorts with beautiful views to rest for the first night. ### Second Day **Morning:** Wake up early to participate in the almsgiving ceremony to monks on the Mon Bridge, a tradition preserved by the Mon people. The almsgiving here is serene and friendly, with locals dressed in traditional Mon attire, allowing you to experience the local culture up close. **Late Morning:** Then, continue to **Kroeng Krawia Waterfall** or **Khao Laem National Park**, which are not far from Sangkhlaburi town. These places are perfect for relaxing and enjoying the beautiful waterfall before preparing to return. ### Summary Sangkhlaburi is ideal for those who enjoy a peaceful atmosphere and want to experience the local way of life. A 2-day, 1-night visit allows you to experience nature, culture, and interesting history. Although it is a short trip, it is filled with memorable experiences.
