Tiger Temple, Kanchanaburi

Tiger Temple, Kanchanaburi. Drugged or not?

With the exception of a couple of wrong turns, riding out of Bangkok was hassle free and i was soon on my way to my first stop at Kanchanaburi.

Know mostly for the Bridge over the river Kwai and the start of the WW2 death railway, Kanchanaburi is a laid back, but popular tourist hot-spot. Beyond the Bridge and related war museums, the Erawan falls and Tiger temples are both well worth a visit. Some say the tigers are drugged and mistreated on a daily basis, but no real evidence given either way so i got the pic.
