Located 130 km west of Bangkok and covers an area of 19,480km², Kanchanaburi is Thailand´s third largest province. Its major attractions include several waterfalls, mountains, caves (that were once inhabited by neolithic man), national parks and last, but not least, the River Kwai and its famous bridge, immortalized in Pierre Boulle’s same named novel and David Lean's movie.
Golf holidays to Kanchanburi are centred around the Nichigo Resort & Country Club. Located 140 kilometres west of Bangkok, it is a fully self-contained golf and recreation resort nestling between the mountains of the western border and the legendary River Kwai. Its three, international standard, nine hole golf courses, designed by Mitsuaki Kobayashi, are rated as among the best in the country and are excellent for both the recreational and the single digit handicapper.
There is a welcome peace and spaciousness about the course, thanks to its variety of trees, plants and flowers, the scenic beauty of its mountains, lakes, river view and eye catching miniature replica of the Bridge over the River Kwai.
