点评:I had trouble finding open if this place was still open, in March 2022. Finally, I found out that it is, but only by appointment. (I found out by showing up there, and finding a note on the door saying you had to make an appointment, with a phone number).
So I made an appointment, and returned the next day. This is a fascinating place. I thought it was just going to be an enclosure with a bunch of butterflies flitting around, but it is a working butterfly farm where they grow the cocoons (chrysalises) for export to 5 different countries. They take you on a tour through the whole process, from egg laying, to larvae, to caterpillars, to cocoons, to butterflies. They export most cocoons, but keep a number to produce more butterflies for continued breeding. There are 15 types of butterflies raised here.
The tour takes about 90 minutes. They also breed turtles, so they will show you the turtles as well.
I got there by taking the local bus to the Lelydorp bus station, followed by a 30 minute walk (although you could take a taxi from the bus station for very little money).
翻译:如果这个地方在 2022 年 3 月还在营业,我很难找到它。最后,我发现它是,但只能通过预约。 (我是通过出现在那里发现的,并在门上找到一张纸条,上面写着你必须预约,还有一个电话号码)。
于是就约好了,第二天就回来了。这是一个迷人的地方。我以为它只是一个围栏,里面有一群蝴蝶飞来飞去,但它是一个工作的蝴蝶农场,他们在那里培育茧(蛹),出口到 5 个不同的国家。他们带你参观整个过程,从产卵到幼虫,到毛虫,到茧,到蝴蝶。他们出口大部分茧,但保留一些茧以生产更多的蝴蝶以继续繁殖。这里饲养着15种蝴蝶。
游览大约需要 90 分钟。他们还饲养海龟,所以他们也会向您展示海龟。
我乘坐当地巴士到达雷利多尔普巴士站,然后步行 30 分钟(尽管您可以花很少的钱从巴士站乘坐出租车)。
