As a child I remember going to the fantastic place where it was warm and balmy where beautiful butterflies landed on your arm if you stood still!
On arrival we parked the car and were accosted by cheeky peacocks looking for any picnic leftovers! The kids had a great time playing chase the peacock!
We decided to pay for the joint butterfly house & garden entry and make the most of the day.
As we entered the butterfly house we noticed the increase in temperature and realised there were butterflies everywhere! Hiding in the trees, resting on the roof top or snacking on the carefully placed bowls of sugar syrup they like to eat.
The butterflies were gorgeous - the place was just like I remembered all those years ago :)
After spending plenty of time with the butterflies - trying to count the different species with the kids we carried on through the parrot & reptile area, we enjoyed trying to encourage the parrot to talk to us.
Outside in the gardens we made our way to the maze and promptly got lost. After many twists, turns and dead ends we reached the centre! Then it was just a matter of trying to remember how we got there in the first place to get back out again!

Once we found our way out we climbed the Moghul Tower - to view the maze from above. The kids wanted to play in the children's play area and did just that until closing time!
We had an interesting day and enjoyed doing something a little bit different.
