We are proud to say that this is Asia’s largest Butterfly park that occupies 35 acres of land and is situated at Melur, Srirangam, Trichy.

Now, this park has become the main attractions of Trichy for tourists to enjoy. A tall Butterfly statue welcomes you in the park that is 15 feet tall which is a sight to watch. As the name suggests, the park mainly focuses on breeding of around 39 local species of butterfly.

These colorful butterflies are lovely to watch and makes you forget the whole world. If you wish to make a butterfly sit on you, you can ask the person in charge of the park to spray a scent that attracts butterflies.

Another specialty of the park is the Zodiac sign park (Nakshatra vanam) where you can plant a sapling for free as per your zodiac sign.

Each plant in the Zodiac park represents each Zodiac sign. Also, 12 plants are planted representing 12 Zodiac Sign(Rasi) of people.

From the check post to top slip takes around 45 min. There is a forest office that manages the safari into the forest. You have to pay Rs. 200 per head for a Three-hours safari in a back-breaking, rundown vehicle. We should wait for safari pickup. There are a canteen and eco shop which are useful during the waiting time.

Private vehicles are allowed inside with prior approval from the forest department and you can see few elephants, bison, deer, wild boars, monkeys etc.

This place is more greenish and best for Natural Sightseeing. but not able to spot more animals. To enjoy climate and nature we can visit Topslip Tiger Forest.

Tigers are not seen here as they are very rare. You can take your binoculars along for a good view of animals from a distance.
