Thailand is known for being a rich country when it comes to nature and wildlife and the people love elephants and everything about them.
Elephant watching
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.
Where to stay
Of all the things to do in Hua Hin, elephant watching is a must have experience and stay at a place that is close to the sites, like AVANI Hua Hin Resort & Villas, is a good idea.
About the camps
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.
What to expect
You can 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.
