Hey everyone.

Last week, I had the opportunity to visit an elephant sanctuary. The name of the place we went to was called Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort. I posted a video about my visit there and also I will include some pictures that I took at the sanctuary.

I would like to emphasize that Anantara is a great elephant sanctuary that put their elephant their number one priority. Before you start criticizing about riding elephants, please make sure you do some research on the place before you start to commentย  about the place. Thank you!!!
