Tiger Temple (Animal Sanctuary)

Fortunately, there are no more tigers here! You can easily buy food for the animals right outside the Sanctuary, which makes the experience even more fun. I highly recommend going with a local guide—they handle the driving and make feeding the animals so much easier and more enjoyable than doing it on your own

The place looks abandoned but still gives business to many people. Inside has many deers, cows, pigs that you can feed. The animals looks like they're in very good condition and were fat. My kids had so much fun going here and feeding animals.

This place is incredible. It isn’t a tiger temple anymore - instead it is full of free ranging farm animals. You can buy bags of food very cheaply from the locals and then feed them from your car or from a locals ute. The kids loved it!

Tigers have all been removed as being mistreated (thank goodness) - however now unfortunately what’s left is an abandoned home for hundreds of animals. Would please defo recommend for people to go and feed these animals. They have stalls at the front which sell food(100baht for a large bag) the gentlemen kindly offered to take us on the back of his truck to feed them all if we spent over 500 baht which we did and even then we seemed to run out of food. I did not take many photos as was too involved in feeding all the animals- it seems so unfair they have almost all been left. It has dear/ raindear/cows/buffalo’s/pigs/horses and more I am forgetting. The day we went there had just been new piglets born 1 day old and without people’s help these animals will not survive. I couldn’t recommend this enough- Please go and help these wonderful animals.

This temple has an an unfair reputation. In the past it was a tiger sanctuary where privately owned tigers were rescue by the abbot. Animal control Department removed these tigers from the temple care. What this temple is now is a sanctuary for rescued animals that were destined for the abattoir. There are local farmers who sold farm produce that are not suitable for market sale to the tourist. 5 bags for 500 bahts and they will take you around the temple to feed the hungry animals. This time around we also had the local children came along and help. We need more people to come and change the reputation of this temple. This temple is a safehouse for rescued animal.

My girlfriend and I had a fantastic day. Beautiful surroundings and lovely guides. Some people claims that they give the tigers sedatives, which is not true. Visiting hours are only when the sun is at its highest, which is when tigers naturally sleep. Remember to book a return trip when you go there. We took the local bus and walked several kilometres, which resulted in us not being able to find a bus back home and having to ask strangers for a lift, which luckily worked out.

If you want to see tigers, don't come here. We had fun feeding the different animals that live there. I recommend visiting if you drive past. Food can be bought therem 100 Baht for a huge bag of vegetables.

This place deserves more love. It's like a safari: you drive around and feed the animals. And since it's only "harmless" animals (no tigers) like cows, pigs, deer and horses, it's safe to get out of the car. It was wonderful! They are so cute 🐮🦌🐗🐴
