Message from João Petersen

Minneriya National Park in Sri Lanka is a wildlife lover's paradise, known for its dense population of Asian elephants. The park, established in 1938 and officially designated as a national park in 1997, is located in the north/central region of the country. Visitors can witness "The Gathering" of over 300 elephants around the Minneriya tank, a man-made lake that serves as a vital water source for the animals. With jeep safaris offering close encounters with elephants, monkeys, peacocks, and more, a visit to Minneriya promises an unforgettable experience amidst lush jungle landscapes.
