CHIANG MAI - ELEPHANT POO POO PAPER PARK

In 2005, Canadian Michael Flancman and his Thai wife Tun created PooPooPaper, a line of recycled paper products made from animal poop. The company is based in Toronto has been selling these products mainly to retailers and institutions such as museums and zoos.

This park is located in Mae Rim, almost next to the Tiger Kingdom.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE : There is no elephants here.

During an excellent self-guided tour you will see all the stages of the production of paper from dung (excrement of animals) and learn about the history of paper making. Dung contains fiber and with this fiber it is possible to make paper.

For sale at the park a stationery, notepads, greeting cards and journals all produced from a pulp made with the dong of fiber-eating herbivores such as elephants, horses, cows and donkeys. You can make your own postcard or journal from dung for a small fee and take home. The park is pleasant and spacious and it doesn't smell of dung.

The shop has great souvenirs. Many items to choose from. I'll bet, you won't come back empty handed.

All in all, this place is fantastic for everyone, whether young or old, single, couple, or family. It features a great and entertaining mix of education, local craftsmanship, but, above all - FUN !
