KUALA GANDAH [ELEPHANT SANTUARY]


 
The elephant sanctuary is located about 150km away, which is about 2-hour drive from Kuala Lumpur. It is one of the hidden gems in Pahang, near to Lanchang. It was set up in 1985 by the Department of Wildlife and National Park and run by the Elephant Capture and Translocation Unit. It serves as an educational and perseverance of endangered and protected elephant in Malaysia. It also takes in any abandoned elephants, hence its name Kuala Gandah Elephant Orphanage Sanctuary.
