And one of the highlights of this celebration is feeding elephants a Northern Khantok dinner - an ancient royal tradition of the Lanna Kingdom where sticky rice and traditional dishes are served on a wooden tray to the accompaniment of Northern music and classical dances.
As the National Elephant Institute aims to develop the conservation of elephants sustainably while preserving local traditions and improve the tourism business that involves elephants, the institute also offers a variety of eco-tourism activities for guests that maybe enjoyed throughout the year.
