Entopia by Penang Butterfly Farm

Entopia by Penang Butterfly Farm is perfect if you’re looking to be close to nature or if you are in Penang, looking for things to do with your little ones…

I had never stepped foot inside Entopia before but I had visited Penang Butterfly Farm on several occasions as a kid

Just before entrance, as per the MKN /KKM SOP, we had to scan PGCare or MySejahtera and get our temperature was recorded before allowed entry… There is an attendant ready to help you spray sanitiser on your hands at the turnstiles…

This 1 hectare butterfly park in Penang is one of the largest of its kind! Here you can find nature’s largest classroom and discovery hub, a place where colourful butterflies and insects are free to come out and play..

Entopia consists of two domes; The Natureland, which is a living garden vivarium, is a shared ecological space for a variety of animals from invertebrates and reptiles living in their re-created natural habitat….

It is the one of the largest butterfly garden in Malaysia with approximately 15,000 free-flying butterflies at any one time consisting of up to 60 species.

The living garden features more than 200 species of plants with waterfalls, ponds, caves and other artistic garden features. Be sure to stroll along the mezzanine-terrace from David’s Garden and get a majestic view of our Home Tree.

With a dome-shaped exterior, similar to Singapore’s Flower Dome. In it, are a variety of insects, reptiles and over 15,000 free-flying butterflies!

Then there is the Cocoon featuring two floors of learning exhibition and indoor activities, but during my visit since it had just reopened for RMCO, the upper floor of the Cocoon is closed… This indoor discovery centre encourages visitors self-explore the world of invertebrates through various interactive edu-stations…

Entopia was once the Penang Butterfly Farm, founded in 1986 by David Goh from his passion for butterflies, and it has since evolved like a butterfly emerging from it pupa to be one of the must visit tourist spots in Penang! The butterfly farm is currently managed by David Goh’s son, Joseph Goh – the CEO of Penang Butterfly Farm.

We definitely had an enjoyable time strolling through Natureland with Jojo recounting stories as well as providing explanations on Entopia as well as the butterflies…

There are even sessions that allow visitors to meet and greet and even hold the scorpions, iguanas, if you are brave enough….

But we were excited about being able to participate in the butterfly release session, where we each got a little container with a butterfly that have just emerged from its pupa…

It is said that if we whisper a wish to a butterfly, and it will fly up to heaven and make it come true… So I definitely whispered mine to it before releasing the new butterfly to Natureland… Fingers crossed I hope it comes true…

The Entopia Penang entrance fee is about RM69.00 for adults and RM49.00 for children…
