Candacraig Hospital
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 3
Abstract
For over a century, Candacraig House in Pyin Oo Lwin, Myanmar has been a luxury mansion used as an executive residence and sumptuous hotel, with a brief period when it was used as a hospital by the Japanese during their occupation of Burma in the Second World War. It is rumoured to be haunted, perhaps by the casualties of war. Death and disease and use of Candacraig House as a hospital during the Burma Campaign are discussed with parallels of today.
