点评:An interesting and engaging encounter with elephants. If you are interested in elephants and want to see them free from chains and giving rides to tourists then this is the place to go. The Freedom Project is run on a day to day basis by young women who are helpful, friendly and informative. Our experience started with a home prepared lunch and then a video explaining the philosophy of the Freedom Project and then we were prepared for our elephant encounter. There are two elephants, Manike and Kumari and in the course of the afternoon there is opportunity to get close to them in a controlled manner. A few people at a time were able to feed them fruit and then later assist with bathing them in the shallow river with everyone having the opportunity. We also went on an elephant walk or rather a slow stroll as they stop to devour grasses and tree branches. During the afternoon we learnt more about the elephants and how they are cared for there as well as general elephant facts all delivered in an engaging way. It was a fabulous afternoon’s adventure.
