Cool Arizona Places: Butterfly Wonderland

Normally we talk about cool places to visit in Arizona to get out of the summer heat.  This cool place is real warm year around, but then they have to be very warm and humid as they maintain a tropical climate for their butterfly area.

Butterfly Wonderland takes flight as one of the newest attractions in the Valley with a highly innovative, indoor rainforest environment featuring the largest butterfly pavilion in America.

You’ll be welcomed into a magnificent, lush, rainforest environment where thousands of butterflies from around the world fly freely, alighting on fragrant flowering plants and, quite possibly, on a friendly visitor’s shoulder or finger.

America's Largest Butterfly Atrium
Fluttering, flittering, flying. Stroll inside this 10,000 square foot atrium and stand in wonder as thousands of butterflies from around the world enchant with their grace and beauty. This dramatic, glass-enclosed atrium shelters a breathtaking rainforest environment with lush tropical plants, trees, waterfalls and a large Koi pond.

Among the favorite butterflies to see are the iridescent beautiful Blue Morpho butterflies from the rainforests of South America, the delicate looking Paper Kite butterfly and if you are observant, you might catch a glimpse of the Atlas Moth (technically not a butterfly!).

Ant Farm
This engaging live ant colony display encompasses several distinct environments, which allow you to follow these harvester ants while they go about their duties as part of a thriving community.

View the ants up close as they tunnel and are busy working together. Watch as they gather food for the colony and build anthills and mounds.

Honey Bees
Protected by glass and comprised of a large beehive, this elaborate exhibit allows each visitor to easily observe our pure bred honey bees as they go about their daily activities. Bees are one of the most important pollinators to our agriculture.
