In the enclosed greenhouse environment, the colourful exotic butterflies perform
their aerial acrobatics amongst the lush tropical vegetation and trickling
waterfalls. For the fortunate, be enchanted by a butterfly emerging from its
chrysalis or landing on your brightly coloured clothing.
Visitors can also learn more about the butterfly's life cycle, habits and

strange insects on display. This is a truly fun and educational day outing which
