Edward Youde Aviary, Bird sanctuary in Hong Kong Park, Hong Kong
Edward Youde Aviary is a large bird facility within Hong Kong Park where more than 600 birds from approximately 80 species inhabit different zones. Elevated walkways guide visitors through the canopy at varying heights, providing close observation of the birds.
The facility opened in 1992 and was named after Sir Edward Youde, who served as Hong Kong's governor from 1982 to 1986. This naming choice honors his contributions to the city during his time in office.
The name honors Sir Edward Youde, a former governor, and the facility showcases birds from Southeast Asia in settings that reflect their natural homes. Visitors can observe how these species live and interact within their regional environments.
The aviary is located on the northeastern slope of Victoria Peak and operates daily from 9:00 to 17:00. Multiple observation points and information panels are positioned throughout to enhance the visit.
The structure rises to approximately 46 meters at its tallest point and incorporates natural terrain with streams, pools, and waterfalls. These water features serve the birds' needs while creating a realistic habitat experience for visitors.
