literally, thousands of butterflies kept inside a net-covered tropical garden, which is also set with many beautiful plants and flowers. As butterflies enjoy the presence of water, the garden has ponds, waterfalls, and other water holes, which give the impression of being inside a small paradisiac environment.
Most of the butterflies belong to the many species found in Malaysia. One, in particular, is the black and green Rajah Brooke, which is the national butterfly of Malaysia.
