The elephant orphanage is one of the tourist attractions in the area. This institution houses about 70 elephants of different ages. Apart from those born in captivity, most of them are crippled or orphaned. The youngest elephants are bottle-fed several times a day. However, many voices are raised against the poor treatment of the pachyderms. In addition, the entrance fee is exorbitant, better to visit a national park.

Bien avec les enfants. Prix élevé, car les touristes paient une partie de l'entretien. A beaucoup évolué en 15 ans. N'hésitez pas à prendre une boisson à l'hôtel pour profiter du bain des éléphants.

It is not worth the high cost of entrance at all; for this sum, you can enter a national park and be able to make super and see full of animals in freedom.
This place is a tourist trap that lost all its raison d'être.

Nous avons été un peu déçus par cette visite, l'orphelinat ressemble à un zoo, où les touristes sortent les billets pour donner à boire aux deux éléphanteaux présents...Le bain reste le plus beau moment de cette visite.
I advise you to come in the morning to the opening. You can see the adults with their food and watch them spirit to enjoy. Then is the baby elephants to have their baby bottle, you can try to give them their baby bottle but in seconds the baby bottle is bus.
For the session food, it is necessary to access the river via a shopping street. Arrive then the herd of elephants which the river for the time being bath.
Setup in the restaurant where you have a view of the river and admire for hours elephants that take their bath. Do not forget to bring bananas, you can give them before they back in bath or when they leave.
