In case you didn't know, Laos was known as "the land of a million elephants." Now, Laos only has about 700 elephants left in the wild - and only 400 domesticated elephants. Therefore, one of the things I wanted to do in Luang Prabang was hang out with the elephants!!

MandaLao Elephant Conservation is a sanctuary that provides an intimate non-riding experience with elephants. It was a very educational and enjoyable experience, which I highly recommend. I had the opportunity to feed and walk around with the elephants - Mae Kahm, 43yrs old and Mae Peng, 55yrs old.
