We went to check out the newly opened elephant house and was impressed by its spaciousness.
A heated floor mimics a section of dry riverbed where elephants can rest and maintain healthy feet out of mud or water. Water pools, mud holes and shading objects also allow them extra comfort and recreate their habitats. It was designed by Sir Norman Foster, architect of famous buildings such as Swiss Re, Hong Kong & Shanghai Bank and Chep Lap Kok Airport.
