The performance was full of Chinese atmosphere. I thought I was still watching the performance in China. You have to queue up to ride the elephant, but other projects are ok. It is very comfortable to watch the performance on the second floor. It is also free and first come first served. It is worthy of praise 👍Recommended for a half-day tour with children!

We are three adults and two children, so the transportation choice is the most cost-effective way to rent a car, but we must be familiar with the local traffic regulations and driving habits, and safety first. Elephant Village is about seven kilometers from downtown Pattaya. Note that there are several elephant villages around Pattaya, which is easy to confuse'. It was originally a friend and child who wanted to see the elephant ride, but the ticket actually brought ladyboy show, an unexpected little surprise. Let's talk about the next ticket 🎫 divided into two types: 300 baht tickets ＋ performance ＋ a glass of iced drink. (Very nice but not good to drink will give you a drink colored on your tongue) 600 baht tickets ＋ performance ＋ one cup is the only extra is the elephant riding project (two people, about 12-15 minutes, around the forest area, there will be a section of the water) The whole scenic spot will be followed up, After a little time, I will take the souvenirs made by your photos to sell you: photos with clocks (300) photos of imitating the jungle (100) and paid items such as crossings and cross-country four-wheeled cycling, and there are not many introductions if you don’t participate. In short, 300 baht and 60 yuan, watching animals, close contact with elephants, watching show is quite worth my thought. [Cost-effective] 5/5 Full Star [View] 5/5 Full Star [Fun] 4/5 Four Stars

It was catching up with the rainstorm, but fortunately, the elephant village after the rain gave me a different experience. To be honest, I was very distressed for the elephant. The weight of nearly 400 pounds was pressed on the body. The staff used an iron hook to hook the elephant's ears. It was too cruel. The only thing I could do was buy more bananas, even if so, This is the first and last time I have ever ridden an elephant!

I still very good to feed all the bananas to them, almost a large bag of bananas to feed, ready to ride the elephant.
