Visit Hellfire Pass Interpretive Centre

After visiting Thum Krasae, you can then continue on with your scooter for another hour and visit Hellfire Pass Interpretive Centre, a much-acclaimed museum dedicated to the event where the Japanese forced the Allied prisoners of war and Asian laborers to cut through this treacherous section of the Pass resulting in heavy loss of life. The museum is beautifully designed with excellent displays of information, presentations, and videos that help guide you through the gruesome history of what went down at the Hellfire Pass.

After a 30-minute stroll around the museum, you will have the option to choose between 2 nature walks at the end. The shorter one goes to the monument through sections of the pass which takes about 15 minutes to walk and another 2.5 km trail which takes 3 hours to complete. Hellfire Pass Interpretive Centre is open from 9 AM to 4 PM and the entrance is free for both Thais and foreigners.
