Kuala Lumpur Butterfly Park, Butterfly zoo in Lake Gardens, Malaysia

The Kuala Lumpur Butterfly Park is a butterfly zoo located within Lake Gardens where thousands of butterflies fly freely among planted gardens and vegetation. The site is filled with tropical plants and ferns arranged to create suitable living spaces for the insects.

The sources do not record a founding date for the Kuala Lumpur Butterfly Park. They describe it as a public butterfly zoo beside the Lake Gardens and the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park, covering over 80,000 sq ft (7,400 m2) and holding more than 5,000 butterflies, and count it among the largest butterfly houses in the world.

The park displays native butterfly species in settings that resemble their natural habitats, allowing visitors to watch them interact with flowers and plants throughout the day. The garden layout creates spaces where these insects move freely without barriers between them and observers.

The park is within walking distance of Pasar Seni train station, making it easy to reach by public transport. Visitors should be prepared for humid conditions inside since the environment needs to stay warm for the butterflies to thrive.

The park covers over 80,000 sq ft (7,400 m2) beside the Lake Gardens and the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park, and holds more than 5,000 butterflies, many of them local species. It also keeps insects, exotic plants, butterfly-host plants and ferns, and ends with an exhibition area and a souvenir store.
