Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Located in Jinghong, Yunnan Province, Wild Elephant Valley is a place frequented by wild Asian elephants, hence the name. A footpath as long as 4,000m winds its way amid tropical forests inside, where roaming along, one may get an intimate feel of the rain forest. Rare tropical plants dot either side of the pathway. One may even spot tracks left behind by wild elephants.

Other visitors' reviews of Wild Elephant Valley
Show More ReviewsOur 9-day, 8-night trip included Wild Elephant Valley, which we initially planned to visit since we were already there. Perhaps because the rainforest hike and the Chinese Academy of Sciences Botanical Garden were so lackluster, we were surprised to find Wild Elephant Valley surprisingly enjoyable. You can feed the elephants and observe them up close. The kids loved the elephant show. Luckily, we brought umbrellas, as we were sitting in the third row and almost got sprayed with snot. The key point is that it was really cheap compared to all the other attractions! Excellent value for money.
