Paint a love-themed elephant in Chiang Mai & experience freeform art in Thailand

Text & Photos /Guo Renrong

The Chiang Mai attraction we’re introducing today is called Elephant Parade House. If you love elephants and enjoy artistic creation, this place is absolutely heaven. Right at the entrance, a painted elephant greets you—how could I not take a photo of something so adorable?

During our visit, we happened to meet the artists here working on coloring an elephant calf about the size of a human.

They sell T-shirts, postcards, mugs, and more—all reasonably priced. Best of all, 20% of your purchase goes to Elephant Home as a charity fund for elephant breeding and care ^^

There’s also a DIY elephant painting classroom on the second floor. For just 600 THB per person, you can try your hand at creating your own masterpiece.

I got a little yellow elephant—watch me unleash my creativity~~~

Ta-da~~~ It’s done. I used Google Translate to find the word “love” in different languages, then penciled in the outlines.
Then I filled them in stroke by stroke—isn’t it pretty creative? I added my signature at the end. Mission accomplished.
