In the northern Thailand, there's an attractive jungle (丛林) where you can sleep right in the middle of an elephant group. I tried it, and it was life-changing.
It's been my longtime wish to get up closer to the elephants. When I discovered the Jungle Bubbles, I was so excited that I jumped at the chance to spend sundown to sunup with elephants as my nighttime neighbors.
At 5 p. m., I was led along a stone path, and there they were: the Jungle Bubbles. There was complete privacy(隐私) with a wooden fence(栅栏), and all I saw and heard were elephants. It seems elephants never sleep. Well, they actually get two or three hours a night, and according to scientists, they may lie down for an hour every few days. Nothing is more interesting than watching elephants closely for such a long time.
When my guide left, it was 5:30 pm. It was still warm, and the light was golden. It was a perfect moment for pictures! I was as giddy as a kid opening presents on Christmas morning when I took pictures of the elephants standing just a few yards away. It was amazingly relaxing here. The only thing I had to do was watch elephants. I took a beer and watched them in the evening playing in a mud hole.
When the sun was down, I sat in the dark listening to the elephants eating leaves and insects buzzing(嗡嗡叫). The stars began to appear in the sky, this surely qualified as one of the most peaceful places on Earth.
The Jungle Bubbles experience is unforgettable,I decided to recommend this place to my readers.
