The KL Bird Park is one of the main attractions on the typical tourist trail of things to do in Kuala Lumpur. Billing itself as "the World's Largest Free-Flight Walk-In Aviary", the park consists of 20.9 acres of forested land in a valley in the Lake Gardens area.
Getting to the KL Bird Park is fairly straightforward. Public taxi is the most convenient way to go; there is also a taxi counter at the Bird Park and plenty of taxis loitering around. Alternatively, one of the stops on the Hop-On Hop-Off (HOHO) bus route is right in front of the Bird Park. Another way of doing it is by going by KTM Komuter train to the Kuala Lumpur Train Station and walking 1.2km to the Bird Park.

The Bird Park is open 7 days a week, including public holidays; from 9am to 6pm. Admission fees for an adult is RM48; whilst children from 3 to 12 years old are charged RM38. MYKAD holders are given discounted rates of RM25 (adult) and RM12 (child) respectively. Tickets can be bought at a booth located at the entrance to the park.
The park is made up of four main zones, with a mix of free-flight aviaries and caged areas. Zones 1 & 2 are free flight areas, where the birds roam freely in a tropical environment under huge netting held up by towering masts.
One of the many birds you will find in the free-flight Zone 1 and Zone 2 areas are the plentiful Indian Blue Peafowl. If you are lucky, a peacock will fan his impressive tail for you to see.
Look out also for the bright red Scarlet Ibis. Not as many as some other species in the park; if you spot one, count yourself lucky.
Plenty of storks hang around the vicinity of the Flamingo Pond. You may even spot a pelican or two among them.
At the World of Parrots, you can feed the birds with milk for a small fee. Some of the birds you can see in this enclosure include Lory's, Lorikeets, Cockatoos and Parrots.
In addition to the various attractions, there is also an amphitheater in Zone 4 of the park which has twice daily Bird Shows. A souvenir shop and restaurant round up the rest of the facilities.
