Trip to Malaysia (page 4) >>


At last we reached Kuala Lumpur ("Mud in the river mouth") - the capital of Malaysia. Unfortunately, we had not time to see the city, we only visited Kuala Lumpur Butterfly Park. As you can see on the pictures, the park amazingly landscaped and decorated with small koi ponds, brooks and waterfalls demonstrated enthralling sight of well simulated part of tropical forests.

 

 

This sanctuary was notably higher and covered bigger area. Butterflies felt more freedom here and none of them made any attempts to escape. We observed courtship behaviour of Troides helena. Take a chance to see a short fragment from the film we taped in the park. Butterflies freely set on visitor like one you see here did. This is Kallima paralekta sitting on Vladimir Meshcheryakov's hand. 

 

 

Kuala-Lumpur Butterfly Park has also live-insect room, exhibition of entomological collections and souvenir shop, which are principally the same as in Penang.

After two-hour excursion in the park we left Kuala-Lumpur to come back to Penang.  >>
