Penang Bird Park, Penang, Malaysia
3.0 (93 reviews) Spent Ranking #1 in Seberang Perai District Nature & Wildlife Areas • Parks
Natural, informative and lively
The park is filled with a wide range of birds, especially those found locally in Malaysia. Some storks roam freely.There are some deers (including sang kancil), crocodiles and rabbits. All these animals are lively and seemed well cared for. The surroundings are spacious and shady for one to take a rest. Spent the morning hours observing and admiring these creatures and felt it was really worth it. The half-hour bird-show was informative, especially to the children who were present. The toilets are clean. However, i think due to funding constraint, the place is rather basic and old.

Under-rated
Great variety of birds. The birds are well-cared for with the exception of a few. Worth a visit if your interest is in birds but it will most definitely disappoint if gleaming hardware such as cages, building structure, and good amenities are important to you.

Too expensive and poorly maintained
Penang Bird Park was to be the highlight of our day trip around Penang Island and Butterworth. What a disappointment!! For the most part the animals kept here look healthy but the aviaries and pens need a major overhaul. There has been some attempt at repainting but it the park needs major structural work immediately if it is to survive. I can't believe a major attraction like this has been let deteriorate to this state of disrepair. Why doesn't Tourism Malaysia step in and help these people out? There is no reason why It couldn't be returned to its former glory.
