Thailand is known for being a rich country when it comes to nature and wildlife and the people love elephants and everything about them.
Any trip to Thailand will surely have you gawking at elephant or two, even if it wasn’t a part of your plan. But, believe us, it should be a part of a plan. These mammoth yet gentle creatures are a wonder to look at the baby elephants just steal your heart at sight. An elephant camp in Thailand is not hard to find and some resorts like the Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort provide unique stays just for the wildlife lovers in you.
A properly taken care of elephant has plenty of room to play and roam around in and isn’t overworked with shows and performances on a daily basis. The elephant sanctuaries in Thailand take their jobs seriously and provide a natural habitat for these animals so they feel at home. You watch the elephants feed, bathe and go about their daily lives and also help around these things while you click some amazing close ups of the elephants too. As most of these elephants are rescues, riding them is not encouraged in most parks and you’ll also have more fun playing with them in the water than being on top of them.
