Bali Bird Park: A Paradise for Bird Lovers

 

More than just a place where beautiful beaches and waterfalls exist, Bali is also filled with sanctuaries for animals to roam around and live alongside humans. One of the places where you can marvel at the wonders of the fauna is Bali Bird Park, a family zoo which is located in Gianyar Regency.
 

Meet the Stunning Birds

This bird park has an area of about 2 hectares which is home to around 1,000 birds from 250 different bird species not only from Indonesia but also from other regions like Africa, Latin America, and Australia. Aside from birds, here you can also see various types of tropical plants, which amount to approximately 2,000 species. This bird park also serves to protect and conserve Indonesia’s endangered wildlife. It has successfully bred many species of bird, including the rare Pesquet’s Parrot and Bali Starling (jalak Bali). This place is indeed a paradise for bird lovers.
