    This is a must visit place in Chiang Mai (they have multiple outlets). It is a non-profit working for conservation of elephants and their habitat. In addition to elephant figurines painted by famous artists and celebrities that you can buy, it also offers you a chance to paint them yourself. Good activity for young children. Or you can buy unpainted ones to paint at home.

    Very nice little store next to hostel, a bit over priced, but very unique souvenirs,R. Britto style, very nice and well customer oriented employees. Will go back for the unique little elephants. Very comviniently located near thapae gate, lots of foot traffic, perfect for selfie or instagram.

    Always enjoyed Elephant parade and their eco-friendly business model. We dropped our kids (early teens) for three hours to do their respective elephant painting. They enjoyed themselves while my husband and I went for Thai massage. Couldn't find a better arrangement! My daughter's creative work below

    Elephant Parade house is selling models of all scales of colored elephants. Part of the money is used for elephant saving projects. You can even color your own, personal elephant here. It's really worth a visit.

    Pretty fun. You can paint an elephant for 1000 baht. There are a bunch of already painted ones for purchase. 20% of profits goes to some elephant fund.

    Beautifully furnished place, a bit of an art gallery, friendly staff. The Chef is Thai but graduated from Les Cordons Bleu therefore very good classical French food, tasty, good portion. I had le coq au vin ( chicken in red wine sauce) which was excellent amongs other dishes. Chef is the owner and very nice gentleman. If you tired of eating Thai food this is a very good option for both the food and the decor / atmoshpere.

  • 5/5 VERTE F. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I loved. Elephants are exceptional, all sizes all colors. We can not resist. Too bad we do not find these Elephant Parade in France. It seems that there is one in Calais. Must see if you do not pass Chiang Mai. In addition there are excellent restaurants in the same street by the river (Original) J ai adore. Les éléphants sont exceptionnels, toutes les tailles toutes les couleurs. On ne peut résister. Dommage qu on ne trouve pas ces Éléphant Parade en France. Il paraît qu il y en a un a Calais. A voir absolument si vous passez pas Chiang Mai. De plus il y a d'excellents restaurants dans la même rue en bord de rivière

    The last time I was in Chiang Mai this store was in Maya Mal. Now it has its own location. The elephant designs are amazing. I would buy them all if i could. The staff are friendly, helpful, and very welcoming. You can also attend a workshop here and decorate your own elephant. I bought a small 10cm elephant and paid around 1400B. As it is near Christmas, they also had decorations on offer. A worthy souvenir from a fab place - something to keep.

    (Translated by Google) It's a little pricey, but I can see it. Painting an elephant is about 1500 baht. It would not be too bad to go to Thailand elephant once in a while. (Original) 가격이 좀 비싸지만 구경할만해요 코끼리 색칠하기는 1500바트정도 됩니다. 한번쯤은 가서 태국 코끼리 구경하는것도 나쁘지 않을듯요

    (Translated by Google) There are lots of pretty elephant related items! But the price range is pretty and expensive, so I can not help it because it is so bad. ㅠ I recommend it to those who have spare time. (Original) 예쁜 코끼리 관련 상품들이 많아요! 근데 예쁘고 고급인 만큼 가격대가 무지 사악해서 엄두도 못내고 왔네요ㅠ 여유있으신 분들에게 추천해요ㅎㅎ

  • 4/5 Matthew G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great little shop close to old town with many beautiful elephants. The prices are very expensive. It's a bit further away but if recommend visiting the main shop 'Elephant Parade Land' to see where the elephants are made + the history of the project.

    Beautiful experience of painting a small elephant figurine, but no thanks to the staff who tried to rush us despite being the only customers in the store. Advertised 50% discount but didn't mentioned that they had almost doubled the prices recently, in the middle of the pandemic.

  • 5/5 YINGCHU C. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very interesting place! You can buy ready-made ones, or you can draw one yourself and bring it back! (One $1,000) Available in a variety of colors and styles, it takes about 2-3 hours to complete the work! (If you simply draw a picture for about an hour is enough) Personally feel very worthy, people who love elephants must come ~ (Original) 非常有趣的地方!可以買現成的,也可以自己畫一隻帶回去!(一隻$1,000) 有各種顏色和樣式可以選,大約花2-3小時可以完成作品喔!(如果簡單畫一畫大約一小時就夠了) 個人覺得非常值得,愛大象的人必來~

  • 4/5 chiangmaicharlies 3 years ago on Google
    Elephant Parade House on Charoenraj Road, close to Ping River and pedestrian bridge, is full of beautifully painted elephants which make excellent gifts. On the expensive side, but they are exquisite and sales go to help endangered elephants. You can also pay and paint elephants yourself, with the help of staff. Staff are very friendly here. On display here you can see elephants painted by famous artists from around the world. There have been many displays throughout the world using Elephant Parade models - and many are placed around Chiang Mai city.
