The Kuala Lumpur Butterfly Park is located in the Lake Gardens area which includes the KL Bird Park, National Mosque of Malaysia, Islamic Arts Museum, etc..

I like butterfly parks so I enjoyed it. It was an impressive butterfly park but it is also pretty much what you expect if you have visited several. If you enjoy them then I think it is well worth a visit. If you don’t know, it is a good one to check out and see if you like them.

A big part of what I enjoy is the photography so if you enjoy photography you may well also enjoy a visit.

The park includes much more than just butterflies.

The displays are enjoyable.

They say they are the largest butterfly garden in the world spanning over 80,000 square feet of landscaped garden with over 5,000 live butterflies, exotic plants, butterfly-host plants and ferns.

I must say the butterfly part didn’t seem much larger than other places I have been. It was nice but I was surprised to read that they say they are the largest one anywhere. It is the largest I remember when you add the other parts of the park, so my guess is that is what is how they say they are the largest. It still doesn’t seem very large.
