Penang Butterfly Farm

I visited to Penang Butterfly Farm (PBF) which located at Teluk Bahang last weekend. PBF is the homes and sanctuary for over 120 species of rare and exotic tropical butterflies. The farm is complete with a hatchery and a "Preserved Butterflies of the World" museum. This was my second visit to this farm; the first was many years ago.

I am very impressed with this place as it is really beautiful, with plenty of butterflies flying around you. Here's my sharing with you some photos of butterflies that I have taken during my visit.

If you yet visit this place, it is highly recommended for a trip.
