I've been to this park twice and enjoy the butterfly section the most even though the enclosure is not large, The exhibit is dominated by Jacintha Eggfly and Yellow Glassy Tiger butterflies, but I also saw a few Great Orange Tip, Great Helen, Leopard Lacewing and others. For RM12, the exhibit is a steal as compared to SGD$15 for the... More

A lot of butterflies and reptiles to see here (crocs, snakes, scorpions, ostriches, frogs, bugs etc). Good experience for family outing. My kids enjoyed it alot. Nice landscape with lots of trees, plant and stream.

I am from Melaka and I never fail to visit this butterfly park at least once a year, or when relatives and friends from outstation come. In the past, we’d visit Mini Malaysia, the Zoo, the Hutan Rekreasi etc. But my children loved this place the most and we’d normally spend a good two hours or more here! (I don’t... More

We had a nice time here and took lots of pictures but really compared with for instance the Butterfly Park at Phuket it's typically Malaysian, badly maintained with crappy refreshment options. The Thais have the Malaysians beaten all ways up when it comes to this type of place.

Very beautiful place to visit for family with kids. It is worth visiting with very nice landscape. Other than beautiful flying butterflies, reptiles collections are stunning.

For a park dedicated to Butterfly, I must say they lack species of butterfly although there were huge number of Butterflies flying around in the enclosure. Its nice for close encounters but not really exciting to me. Singapore Zoo and Butterfly park at Sentosa did a much much better job with the Butterfly enclosure compared to here. Very unhappy with...

I love the colorful butterflies but can't help feel bad looking at that tiny, run down enclosure for a sad looking Panther behind the glass.. The Sanctuary in general get me down...I understand they do a lot of good like species protection, helping raise endangered species and house animals that would probably otherwise be disposed of. Still, something about watching... More

Nice place to go overall. If you are driving out from Melaka central do lean to the left and look out for the sign, cause once you miss it you are out into the toll and it takes 15mins to get you back. Zoo and wonderland is also around the area, so if you are up to a day loaded... More

We have lived quite close to this attraction for a number of years but only thought to visit when we had family holidaying with us. The entry price is reasonable and it's well-signed from the main road, easy to get to and has plenty of free parking. Just inside the entry are some small aviaries with colourful birds and peacocks,... More
