Malacca Butterfly and Reptile Sanctuary

Malacca Butterfly and Reptile Sanctuary, Butterfly and reptile sanctuary in Ayer Keroh, Malaysia

The Malacca Butterfly and Reptile Sanctuary is a building in Ayer Keroh that houses butterflies and reptiles in separate areas. The grounds also feature many flowering plants that support the ecosystem for the animals kept there.

The Malacca Butterfly and Reptile Sanctuary opened in 1991 as a butterfly house, built over an 11-hectare jungle area of Ayer Keroh. It is privately run and has since added reptiles and other animals, including amphibians, birds, fishes and insects. It stands beside the Ayer Keroh toll plaza of the North–South Expressway.

The name appears in three languages: Melaka Butterfly and Reptile Sanctuary, Taman Rama-Rama dan Reptilia Melaka and 马六甲蝴蝶及爬虫保护所. The butterfly section keeps local species including the Rajah Brooke's birdwing and the birdwing butterfly, and a collection of over 400 insect specimens is on display.

The sanctuary sits beside the Ayer Keroh toll plaza of the North–South Expressway, so it is reached directly from the exit. The grounds cover 11 hectares of jungle, and the route passes nine sections, from the Butterfly Aviary to the Koi Garden.
