Mannar Donkeys

Great place to visit and pet donkeys with children. Very friendly staff.

Nice and cool place to visit. Location marked in google maps is accurate. They allow visitors to pet the donkeys. Also the orphanage care them very well. A visit to this place changes ones mindset on how we thought about donkeys. Likewise we could have them as pets too. Nice place to have an evening too. They provide the location to have a get-together. Also provide barbecue grill and dinner for early requests.

This place was established in 2010. This place is the only place in Sri Lanka which treats the donkeys. The staff with very good and friendly. There few tamed friendly donkeys. There is a special white donkey here as well which is known to be the one and only "white" donkey found in Sri Lanka. These people have anther donkey therapeutic center at Murunkan where they allow the differently-able children (specially children with otistic spectrum disorders ) to play with tamed donkeys. According to them , those children have shown good response.
