The Chiang Mai Elephant Legend is an elephant care center located in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Here, elephants are kept in a secure environment and are allowed to remain in their natural habitat. The mission of the sanctuary is to provide a place where these incredible animals can exist on their own terms and interact with one another in their natural setting.
Guests will have a delightful time spending the day with the elephant family while also supporting community-based, environmentally-friendly ecotourism. Activities include bathing and grooming the elephants, as well as feeding them, creating medicine balls (food) for them, and playing with them in the mud. The elephants' physical health and emotional well-being are treated with the greatest respect by the sanctuary. Amazing and life-changing are two words that have been used to characterize the experience that guests had.
