Lovely place to learn more about the diversity of native butterflies and insects. The exhibition texts are in Thai only though. The entry is free, many families and kids come here. It's a bit dated and in need of proper maintenance but it's free public education and their effort and service needs to be applauded. It's located in a lush, shady park, only takes a nice relaxed stroll to get there.
A nice little place to go at or with kids. Inside there is a small museum with big butterflies and bugs and alive caterpillars showing their cycle of turning to a butterfly. The park itself is very green with elevated pathways here and there. There is a fountain to add the vibe of tranquility. There is also a fish pond with golden fish. And of course there are butterflies. I guess it depends on a season, but in December there were not so many of them, but occasionally I could spot some really big Machaons. No entrance fee. Just need to register in the app.
I left my language at the bus station and had a walk in the park which was great it's a lovely park. The butterfly garden is free and has a little insect museum with dead pinned insects/ butterflies and live caterpillars and such, but there's no English translation. The garden itself is a beautiful little greenhouse full of field flowers, orchids and a koi pond and the butterflies aren't scared of humans which is really cool, you can come right up to them and even hold them on your finger. I noticed mainly monarchs and one other type that's black with four vibrant blue spots, but that was mainly it. It was pretty empty on a Sunday and so was the park, so I definitely recommend it if you're overwhelmed by the crowds at the weekend market
Only a few people in the museum so you can have your time looking at each one. The posters are in Thai so you will definitely need to take your time translating them from Google Translate. But don't let this push you off. No No No. There are real butterflies throughout the museum so it is definitely worth a visit. You can take many beautiful pictures, too. Have fun and enjoy your time here.
Nice butterfly garden has a small indoor museam area with air-conditioning inside ? inside you can find many types of butterfly,? i saw some ppl bring sticks with cotton dipped in honey to make the butterfly come?
