Butterflies. Lots and lots of butterflies. Kids had a blast. If you can go on a weekday it is a lot less crowded. More

Great for kids but grownup will enjoy it too. It seems a bit stuffy inside but I'm sure that is because of the tropical plants and water features More

Great place to take kids or to take photos. The place is a giant indoor garden. You are in with the butterflies and they can actually land on you. Excellent for picture taking, creepy if you don't like bugs. :) More

Butterflies are everywhere! There is lots of information to tell you about their life cycle and to identify the different types. If you where red they will be more likely to land on you! A great family trip as well as adults only More

As you walk around, you see swarms of beautiful color surrounding you. They also have Chinese Painted Quail and Zebra Finches to liven your visit. We even spotted a tiny nest... More

No frills access to some beautiful butterflies. Very simply laid out and easy to see everything. Butterflies will land on you, and be careful where you put your feet! It's controlled by Mother Nature, so be aware that not all of them are available at all times. The staff can advise you, they are very, very happy to educate you... More

I love this place. The butterflies are in their natural habitat. It is just beautiful. Not only a great experience for the kids, the adults will love it to. I bet if you take your Grandma she will love it, probablly even more than you. More

Kids love visiting this indoor butterfly palace. Some times of the year are better than others regarding the number of butterflies flying around you everywhere. More
