Butterfly World
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Butterfly World located in Coconut Creek Florida, is The Largest Butterfly Park in the World. It is the first park of its kind in the Western Hemisphere. The Aviary houses at minimum 3000 live butterflies. Up to 50 different species can be seen in one day.
The Main Butterfly Aviary is divided into several sections. The Paradise Adventure Aviary is first and includes fountains with ponds and butterflies basking in the sun everywhere. Next is the Hanging Garden & Butterfly Emerging Area. Cases with hanging pupa and emerging butterflies are on display. As you keep walking, you enter the Tropical Rain Forest Aviary. Includes a Waterfall, tropical plants, beautiful walkways, free flying birds, and of course thousands of butterflies! There are even fish to feed in the pond.
The park continues with Grace Gardens which is an outdoor Botanical Garden with many flowering tropical plants. Also on the property is one of the largest collections of flowering Passion Flower Vines in the world in the Wings of the World Secret Garden. In the Jewels of the Sky Aviary you can see many Hummingbirds up close as well as other beautifully colored birds. There is also a Bug Zoo, Museum Insectarium, and Butterfly Lab.
