Prepare to meet the most beautiful butterflies from around the world, from Thailand to the rainforests of South America.

In the specially built flight zone with an area of 100 m2, you will see hundreds of exotic butterflies with a wingspan of up to 20 cm! You can observe these beauties of the animal kingdom up close and in absolute contact - no barriers between visitors and the butterflies are found here. So, have your camera always ready in the event that one of these “flying gemstones” chooses your shoulder to land and briefly rest on.

The length of your visit is not limited in any way. On average, visitors spend about 20 – 30 minutes in the flight zone.

How to increase my chances of a butterfly landing on me?

Wear a deep yellow or red shirt and wear a high-quality fruity perfume.

Wheelchair accessibility?

Unfortunately, you will need assistance to overcome several steps to access the reception desk. The flight zone itself is wheelchair accessible.

Entrance with dogs or prams?

Dogs can enter only if under complete control of their owners (i.e., in their arms or in a bag). In light of the safety of the butterflies, we do not recommend entering with prams. However, we will gladly watch your pram at reception.
