At Bali Bird Park, many of the aviaries are open and walk-in. You step through and the birds are around you, with no wall of glass or wire between you and them. Free range birds also move through the park, so you meet them on the paths as well as in the enclosures. The park holds some 1,300 birds of more than 250 species.

The whole park covers 2 hectares, and the enclosures are well thought out and attractive. The park takes a modern, thoughtful approach to showing animals, and you can see it in the open layout. It also has a notably good cafe, which is a real bonus on a day out with children. Few formal attractions in Bali are as well regarded, and it sits among the island's best.
Stepping inside the aviaries
For children, the best part is the walk-in aviaries. They do not watch birds from far away. They stand inside the space while birds fly, perch and call around them. It feels more like entering a bird's home than visiting an exhibit.
Having more than 250 species gives the walk plenty of variety. Each enclosure is built to look good as well as to hold birds, so every turn has something new to see. Young visitors can set their own pace, stopping where a bird catches their eye.
Birds on the paths, not just behind fences
The free range birds change how the park feels. You do not only visit the birds in their areas, because some of them are already out on the paths with you. A child who spots one near the walkway gets a small thrill that a caged display cannot give.
This open style comes from the park's modern attitude to showing animals. It makes the visit calmer and more natural than a row of cages. Parents who want children to see animals living in roomy, attractive surroundings will find that reassuring.
Planning the day around the gates and the cafe
The park is open every day, from 09:00 to 17:30. Entry is US$26 for adults and US$13 for children, so a family can work out the cost easily. The address is Jl Serma Cok Ngurah Gambir in Singapadu. A longer day suits the park because there is a lot to take in.
Plan a stop at the cafe. It has a notably good reputation, which is unusual for an attraction and means lunch or a snack can be part of the visit. Tired children can rest there between aviaries and then go back out.
More animals on the same trip
Families who want a second animal stop have a natural choice in Bali Zoo. It fits the same theme and appeals to the same age group. The Ubud Monkey Forest is another well-known animal visit often put on the same list for children.
Bali Bird Park works best as the main event of its day. Its size and the time it rewards make it a full outing. Leave the extra stops for another morning or afternoon.
