Bangkok Butterfly Garden and Insectarium

A wonderful weekend stop for anyone who loves butterflies. Located inside Rot Fai Park, the insectarium is well-designed with clear information boards, lush plants, and plenty of butterflies flying freely around. It’s meant to be a calm, peaceful space where you can slow down and appreciate how delicate these creatures are. However, I did feel a bit sorry for the butterflies during my visit. Even though visitors are supposed to keep quiet, there were many kids running, shouting, and chasing the butterflies. It disturbed the atmosphere and clearly stressed the butterflies. I really hope parents help keep things calm so everyone — and the butterflies — can enjoy the space. Aside from that, the insectarium is clean, well-maintained, and great for learning. It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re already spending time in Rot Fai Park.

Incredible butterflies of all shapes, colors, and sizes SURROUNDING YOU IN THEIR FLUTTER!!!!!!! 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋 Visiting this butterfly garden is a must-do activity when in Bangkok, I can't believe we stumbled upon it by accident. We spent hours here! No crowd at all. Very well designed garden with water features and multiple levels to walk around. Garden caretakers do a meticulous job tending the plants. No tickets necessary, the garden is free, simply fill out the survey when you arrive.

Worth checking out if you are near the park. We managed to spend 2 hours here watching the critters. The layout of the sanctuary itself is excellent, including a short looping path with verticality giving a wonderful view of the habitat. There were also a number of squirrels running about and enjoying berries. The butterflies, of which there are many sizes and color variations, are incredibly beautiful.
