History-buff, engineering nerd or culture vulture? If you think you fit the bill for one or all, jump on this road trip to Ratchaburi, 110 km from Bangkok, home to the famous floating markets, and then to the &nbsp;Thai province of Kanchanaburi, where you will see the famous &ldquo;Bridge on the River Kwai.&rdquo;

In the morning, we&rsquo;ll visit the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, the country&rsquo;s forerunner when it comes to floating markets. There you&rsquo;ll witness locals trading in the labyrinthine canals. You can either participate in the hustle and bustle, or sit back and relax on a long-tail boat, denizens&rsquo; preferred mode of transport. The Thai gondolas will take you along the waterways, where you will float by rivercraft piled high with coconut and various fruit from nearby farmers. If your taste buds are keen, you can sample the different seasonal produce, mouthwatering noodles, snacks and more here.

After continuing to Kanchanaburi where we&rsquo;ll stop for lunch, we&rsquo;ll visit the Bridge over the River Kwai, part of the WWII &ldquo;Death Railway&rdquo; to Burma, constructed by Allied prisoners of war along with forced labourers from many nations and backgrounds. The structure was mandated by the Japanese in 1943 to support its campaign west to Rangoon. Several World War II sites lie in this direction, such as the Don Rak War Cemetery and the JEATH War Museum, full of pictorial and physical memorabilia from WWII&rsquo;s South-East Asian theatre.
