 Asia's first Butterfly
Safari Park opened at Thenmala
Ecotourism
Destination, Kerala, in 2008 with around 125 butterfly
species.
The Trip
We started from Trivandrum early in the morning and drove to Thenmala
through the valleys of Western Ghats. Trees stood on both sides of the
road. It was a pleasant journey, and we reached Thenmala by 9 am.
There are many things to see at Thenmala ecotourism destination--
beautiful trees, foliage and parks. We went on a boat ride through
Kallada reservoir.
At the Adventure Zone, tourists can walk to the tree tops through an
elevated bridge. Or experience the thrill of crossing the river and
climbing the rocks.
The Leisure Zone is a small forest, dotted with more than 20 thematic
sculptures.
The place also has a Culture Zone. The main attraction is a musical
dancing fountain.
The latest addition is the Butterfly Park
behind the musical fountain.
