Sappraiwan Elephant Learning Center is an eco-tourism destination offering soft adventure activities that prioritize the well-being of elephants and do not disrupt their natural way of life. It creatively designs engaging activities that align with the natural living conditions of the elephants, which are former working elephants and elderly elephants rescued and returned to the forest within the Sappraiwan Resort area. It can be considered a retirement home for elephants. The area encompasses nearly 1,000 rai of private forest, which the owner of the center and the resort strives to maintain in its natural abundance (for example, it has a variety of herbs suitable for the natural living conditions of elephants) to conserve it as a refuge for animals and elephants, as the surrounding areas have been significantly encroached upon by urban development. Sappraiwan Elephant Learning Center is an elephant camp with a standard resort located within its premises. It is supported by the Sappraiwan Elephant Foundation, which was established with the objective of providing sustainable care for elephants by separating them from the hotel business. The foundation's initial funding primarily came from the resort owner's family, friends, and relatives.
