    We visited the complex and while there are some nice elements (the bonsai garden is very peaceful), we were shocked and saddened by the aviary which is one of the main attractions. Hundreds of birds.....  more »

    Experienced Bonsai garden at this place almost 11 yrs ago, Parrot park is not established that time. Visited this place recently again with kids to explore the huge collection of Parrots from all over the world. Experienced a talking Parrot here. Kids enjoy ed this place. For almost each category of parrot Labelled with details of them - Species name, Nick name, country/region, Life span etc. We cannot take photographs inside this place, but at they have designated place to take photos of your family with trained Parrots by them and you can pay to get those printed copies.
