A different and unique park in Catalunya, to discover the fascinating world of butterflies.
If you want to see butterflies and exotic birds you can’t miss the Butterfly Park. The aim is that families, children, young and old can observe all these animals in semi-freedom. In addition to being able to see the life of butterflies up close, observe the four phases of their life cycle and get to know the great variety of species that exist.
The Butterfly Park is home to some of the world’s most beautiful butterfly species, such as Morpho, an electric blue butterfly, living in a 2,000 m² tropical garden amidst lush vegetation.
We enter the greenhouse and feel the warmth, as if we were in a tropical jungle, we see exotic birds, which live freely and let us observe their colours and beauty. There are parrots, lorises, amazons and eclectus among many other species.
We go through a gate and find exotic birds such as ibis, toucans and the world’s largest pigeon. There is a wooded area outside where we find the Muntjaks, very curious and friendly deer from South Asia. We enter a new area through a cave where the bats live, there we find iguanas and small exotic birds, finally we reach the garden where the butterflies live, butterflies of all shapes, of many colours, some fly continuously, there are some that eat, some are so still that they seem to want us to admire their great beauty and give us the opportunity to take incredible photographs.
The visit is quick, taking one or two hours, depending on how much time you spend in each area. Open every day of the year.
