Why go, and how to do it well

Two attractions share one 70-acre site, and they pull in opposite directions. The stone park half is genuinely good: sculptural rock formations, landscaped gardens that are kept in real order, and enough photogenic corners to fill a morning. The other half is a crocodile farm with live shows, plus tigers, giraffes and elephants, with paid feeding on offer.

That second half is where I'd pause. A steady stream of reviewers describe elephants chained with barely a step of movement, tigers in small enclosures without water, and a crocodile show built around handlers hitting and hauling the animals. Others come away happy and call the show the highlight. Both things are in the reviews, and you should know which one you're likely to be. If animal welfare matters to you, this isn't your day out, and I'd send you to the gardens elsewhere in Pattaya instead. If you go anyway, the grounds are large and mostly open to the sky, so wear shoes you can walk in and bring sun cover.

Reviews from Google

Very nice place. Don't miss the crocodile show here. It was very awesome. It's a bit big place. You will need more time to completely go around. You can feed the giraffee and elephant here at extra cost. Very nice place to go

Fun and unique place to visit in Pattaya. The Million Years Stone Park has impressive rock formations and beautiful landscaped gardens. The Crocodile Farm offers shows and close-up viewing, though some people may find it intense. Overall, a memorable experience with lots to see and photograph.

An absolutely horrible place for the animals. All chained with short chains. They have tigers in small cages, some with up to 3 tigers in the same cage, with No water. The crocodile show is a guy hitting, pulling, smacking crocodiles. The riding elephants are smacked, to move them to places. All elephants are in a very small area, all chained, with no chance to even give a step. They have a children playground which is falling apart, slides are broken and are dangerous but they don’t have any signs and kids are still able to get on them. Overcrowding of animals for show. Awful animal conditions.

Tips for Visiting Activities & Tours

Do Outdoor Activities in the Morning
