Elephant Sanctuary Chiang Mai

#getgoing2025 One of the most memorable experiences in Chiang Mai was visiting the Elephant Sanctuary. Here, I learned about the gentle giants who had been rescued from difficult circumstances. The sanctuary isn’t just a place to observe; it’s a chance to engage with the elephants in a respectful, ethical way. Feeding them bananas, bathing them in the river, and watching them roam freely in the forest felt like an honor. The love and care the staff showed for these magnificent creatures was palpable. It was a humbling experience, one that deepened my respect for these animals and the importance of ethical tourism. 📍Chiang Mai, Thailand #thailand #chiangmai #ecotourism #elephantsanctuary #travel #thingstodo #familytravel #newyearvibes

Mae Wang Elephant Camp

🐘 Mae Wang Elephant Camp or Mea Wang Elephant Camp is located in Mae Wang District, Chiang Mai Province. ⛺️ Activities that can be done there, such as playing in the water, rafting, riding slowly, bathing elephants, you can also easily find local food to eat. Suitable for those who want to try living with nature. You can go with your family or friends as well. 🚗 Travel time, drive or take a bus from Chiang Mai city center for about 1 hour and 30 minutes. 🚫 The time to avoid is probably the rainy season. Because there will be heavy rainfall and the water is quite fast, so you can't go rafting. ⏰ You can go every day, no holidays. #ChiangMaiMustComeToKnow #campingglamping
