As far as Thai cities go, Kanchanaburi holds a small place in our hearts which is why we feel the need to go and document a few things we enjoyed about it:
By LP's recommendation we stayed at Blue Star Guest House, since Kanchanaburi's hot heat was the type you could choke on we treated ourselves to an AC room, this alone could be the root of crush on the city - anyhow we've said this before. Below is a photo of Blue Star's tree-house style bungalows that border the river. There were so many small things we liked about this place, one of Jen's favorites was the bi-lingual talking birds caged on the open air deck that would converse with the guests. They would speak phrases in Thai and also knew a few in English but strangely they said them with Thai accents. One of their accented English phrases was "I liiike yooou" and when the guest house kitties would stroll past their cage they taunted them with "meow meow meow meow".
Kanchanaburi also had great riverside restaurants where you could watch beautiful sunsets. Instead of dinning riverside you could book a seat on a dinner barge that was pulled up and then back down the river while you and dinner and watched the sunset. We knew you could do this in Chiang Mai and Bangkok so we opted to do this later.
Ooh I almost forgot, we took a photo of this gas station to depict how different things are here in Kanchanaburi. This gas station sells tall glass bottles of gasoline while doubling as a vendor cart that sells soups and meats.
