Location
Just 10 minutes from the city center is 20.9 acres of land dedicated to some 3000 birds
from at least 200 species. This land is their home and that is the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park.
90% of the birds at the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park can be found locally while the remaining
10% were imported from overseas.
Overview
The Bird Park's history dates back from 1888 when the Lake Gardens was first established.
The Bird Park was part of the Lake Gardens back then but the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park
itself was only established back in 1991. Other attractions of the Lake Gardens
include the Butterfly Park Kuala Lumpur, the Orchid and Hibiscus Gardens,
The National Monument and an artificial lake. The Kuala Lumpur Bird Park is
definitely a tourist spot not to be missed as it is the world's largest free
flight aviary.
Visitors can take long strolls along the walkway of the park while enjoying the view
of birds of various colors and sizes. With every step you take, there will definitely
be birds that catch your attention. Some of the main attractions of the park are the
hornbill park, the flamingo pond, the world of parrots, the egg incubation area, the
bird gallery and education center just to name a few. Daily activities at the
Bird Park include bird shows, eagle feeding, hornbill feeding and so much more.
