Finally the long awaited revamped Penang Butterfly Farm! This place has been around for decades with the old dilapidated buildings. I always wondering why the management never thought of sprucing up the premise given that it is one of the major attractions along the Batu Ferringghi Tourist Belt.
My ponder got answered when the spanking new building was unveiled recently. It has shed its previous unattractive facade after went through a complete makeover. It is like the metamorphosis of the eerie and ugly caterpillar into a beautiful butterfly.
The new facade has interesting display of a huge green wall with various plant species of the tropics. The main entrance now has two decent sculptures of beetle compared to the previous unrealistic giant ant.
The interior has surreal display of lighting that will surely heighten the experience of the visitors. The great all with dome skylight reminisces of a mini Gardens by the Bay of Singapore.
