Mallika R.E 124

This recreation of Thai lifestyle in 1905 is a really great place to visit and spend a few hours. You'll see different styles of building architecture from smaller and modest to big and ornate, staff dressed in period correct clothing and speaking with older style language, all kinds of snacks to try and so on. You'll even get old coins with holes in the middle with which to buy stuff. The layout is really nicely thought out and fun to stroll around and take photos. There are some demonstrations of how things were done at the time, for example grinding rice, or making crafts. The old lady showing us was so cute. They have free parking for your car, but there is an entrance fee which is variable based on whether you want to try food for free or not, and if you want to dress up in clothing styles of the time which looks really great. Highly recommend this place, it should be high on your list if you're exploring Kanchanaburi.

Mallika City is the best getaway when visiting Kanchanaburi. The theme lets you experience and feel the ambiance of Thailand during the Rama V era. It’s best to buy your ticket through their website because they give a 20 THB voucher that you can use at Black Canyon Café. You will need to exchange THB to *satang*, so once inside Mallika City, look for the Siam Commercial Bank where you can exchange your cash for the old coins. It’s a very nice experience, especially for those who love historical places. If you enjoy eating, I recommend buying the admission ticket that includes the “Eat All Around” option so you can taste all the food and **kanom/dessert** inside. :)

A movie set turned tourist attraction. Great place for photographers. Plenty of food and drinks. A market gives you a wide selection of snacks and meal. Souvenir shops are on the covered bridge. Worth a visit.
