Penang Bird Park, Georgetown Overview

The beautifully-landscaped Penang Bird Park is located in Seberang Jaya and is the first and the largest bird park in Malaysia. It is home to over 300 species of birds, ranging from several species indigenous to the nurturing tropical ecosystem of Malaysia to other exotic species from all over the world.

The park has two walk-in aviaries and two geodesic-domed enclosures, and also large spaces which imitate the natural habitats of the birds. It is not uncommon to see majestic birds like Ostriches frolicking about in these environments. Visitors to the stunning park get to spend a day admiring and even (if they’re lucky) interacting with the majestic birds the Penang Bird Park is home to.

Animal Show

The Penang Bird Park boasts a spirited animal show, where several kinds of well-trained birds (including but not limited to parrots, birds, and owls) entertain the numerous spectators.

Children, especially, are known to enjoy the show which is also quite informative and is, therefore, an interactive learning experience.

Timings: 11:00 AM and 3:30 PM daily
