Do you want to increase your chances of having one of these “flying gems” choose your shoulder for landing and a short rest? Use a fruity perfume. You can also pique the butterflies’ curiosity by wearing a yellow or red shirt.

And look - the largest of them have wingspans the length of a soup spoon! The types of species change throughout the year. Therefore, if you visit us in a different season, you will see butterflies that you could not have seen before.
You will see butterflies that live in the rainforests of the Amazon basin to Mexico, sub-Saharan Africa, to the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia. In Papilonia, you will feel like you are on an exotic holiday, because there is a hot temperature and air humidity here.
