From beautiful peacocks to the alien-looking birds from all over the world, this 60-hectare bird park is home to 200 species. Highlights of the park include the free-roaming birds (which seem to cope rather well with the enthusiastic children and photographers), the artificial but well-made waterfall, and the large flamingo pond. You can actually experience part of the bird park without paying to go in by eating at the Hornbill Restaurant and Cafe, which is actually built within the bird park where you can get up close with some of the birds that wish to share your lunch including the large and entertaining hornbills. The restaurant is also not cheap - the set meals are about the same price as the park's tickets, although Malaysians enjoy a measly discount. The park is also a destination of sightseeing buses.
