River Kwae Bridge Week
Each year, late November and/or early December, the world
famous bridge becomes the focal point of celebrations. Highlights
include exhibitions and historical and archaeological displays;
a carnival featuring sideshows, roundabouts, folk entertainment,
and cultural performances; rides on trains hauled by World
War II vintage steam locomotives; and a nightly light and
sound presentation re-enacting the bridge's Second World War
history, including an Allied bombing raid.
