Birds galore

The Jurong Bird Park in Singapore is home to more than 9000 birds!



In Singapore : Birds galore at the bird park.

Jurong Bird Park is a 20.2-hectare open-concept park. It has a collection of more than 9,000 birds from 600 species and specialises in birds from Southeast Asia.

When you step into this 3,000 sqm walk-in aviary you enjoy the experience of having a thousand colourful birds swirl around you in a naturalistic setting. The main inhabitants of The Lory Loft, Jurong BirdPark’s fourth walk-in aviary, are Lories that are native to Australia, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. With suspension bridges and an elevated boardwalk that’s 12m above ground level, you will be right in the thick of things.

The Singapore Science Centre is a non-formal educational institution for the promotion of science and technology among students and members of the public.

Science can’t be boring when you get to play with water. At the Singapore Science Centre’s WaterWorks, which is practically a water theme park in itself, both children and grown-ups get to experiment with the hands-on exhibits.
