Review:

Nestled within the Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens, the Niagara Parks Butterfly Conservatory is a tropical paradise with verdant vegetation and waterfalls. More than 2,000 vibrantly colored butterflies of 45 different species flit around the glass enclosed conservatory. Inside, guests will meander along the winding pathways before ending at the emergence window where they’ll get the unique opportunity to watch hundreds of butterflies take their first flight. Many of the butterflies are imported with 60% coming from butterfly farms in El Salvador, Costa Rica, and the Philippines. The other 40% are raised in the quarantined greenhouse situated behind the Conservatory. Tours are self-guided and begin with a quick but informative video presentation.
