stay in Kuala Lumpur. It's a lovely to see the hornbills flying so free from
tree to tree. The hornbills are really photogenic. They are not so frightened
and will (mostly) wait till you have taken a picture. This is the highlight of
the park.Divided into zones you'll find, a Flamingo pond, Pelicans, Hornbill Park, World of Parrots, a Waterfall Aviary, Amphitheatre, Children's playground and Seminar Room.
