Penang Butterfly Farm

I don't remember when was the last time I went there, my impression from what other people told me last time on the Penang Butterfly Farm is just a place full of butterflies flying around you and just that, nothing special. Well, I am WRONG ! Never see never know, I am quite surprise when I saw so many other things inside, in which butterflies is just 10% of what you are about to see in the Butterfly Farm.

The photo you see in my blog is just part of the things you can expect to see at Penang Butterfly Farm, go there and you will not regret your time and effort to drive all the way to Batu Ferringi. Before exit, you will pass through a souvenir shop. Overall, Penang Butterfly Farm is a great place to visit and RM 10 is a fair price to pay compared to the over-charged Penang Tropical Fruit Farm at RM 25.
