Visit the magnificent Mae Sa Elephant Camp, 30 minutes to the northwest of Chiang Mai city, which is located on the banks of a small river, where the demonstration of how trained elephants are used as working animals in teak forests is given daily. The show includes elephant bathing in the river, working in the jungle, dragging and pushing logs, and responding commands. This is your chance to enjoy an elephant ride around the camp (supplement will be paid on the spot). Afterwards, visit the Orchid Nursery to see a large collection of more than 50 different types of colorful exotic year-round-bloom orchids.
