The River Kwai and Kanchanaphuri Tiger Temple~

This was one of the longest and furthest destination we travelled while our stay in BKK. First it was River Kwai, where it was famous for the brutal killings and slavery by (i forgot which country) of P.O.Ws. It isnt anythign much today except that it was full with stores for tourist and stuff. But it did felt good to visit such a place where history took place.
Next it was Kanchanaphuri where my friend told me that the tigers roam freely around the temple. I did saw this on discovery and i really wanted to visit. But, ahha i think i was just too afriad to touch them and or leave all my gears around as there was strict dresscodes and stuff for you to touch them.

Love of men and beasts.

Huge ass tiger.
Hope you noticed there wasnt any cages of any sort of restraint between you and the tigers. It was said that they are fed meat without the stench of blood, which curbs their hunger to hunt livestock or humans. I dont know whether my facts are correct, but it was really fun to see a tiget up close, minus all the walking under the hot sun.
