Kuala Lumpur Butterfly Park 10 Jun 2012

After last week, I brought the kids to the KL Bird Park, this time around we came to the Butterfly Park.

We have been here for many times before this. The Butterfly park is located inside the Lake Gardens Kuala Lumpur.

The Butterfly Park is one of the five gardens and parks which make up the Lake Gardens. I am planning of trying to do the visits around the Lake Gardens area as I know there are a lot of attractive places around there.

We arrived there around 11.15am. The park is not big, thus it do not take long for us to complete our visit.

The morning was so hot that we do not want to stay long under the sun, luckily that it is sheltered by a thin layer of net.

The park is beautifully landscaped with myriads of lush greenery and colorful flowers. There are also a nursery and breeding area where you can see the butterfly larvae emerging as butterflies from their cocoons.

Other than these butterflies of various colors and sizes, there are also insects on display.

Among the insects on display are the rhinoceros beetles and the praying mantises.

In the Butterfly Park itself is also a souvenir shop where you can purchase home some preserved butterflies which are made into bookmarks, keychains and so on.

We bought some drinks at the souvenir shop, sat down and have a rest. Before we went off, I asked Issac to stand at the entrance there so that I can take a photo of him.

It was so happened that there was a tram which stopped in front of the Butterfly Park. I was curious and asked about the route.

It cost only RM2.00 for adult and RM1.00 for children. Well, this is our first ever experience in visiting the lake gardens in this tram, and it was exciting for us!

It covered the Lake Gardens (TAR Heritage Park zone, Perdana Botanical Garden, Deer Park, Hibiscus Garden, Orchid Garden, KL Bird Park, National Planetarium, Police Museum, Islamic Arts Museum, National Museum), National Mosque.

After which the driver stopped at the Butterfly Park again and we just drop off from there, took our car and drove back home.
