The Butterfly House in Sharjah

The Butterfly House promises to educate and dazzle both adult and child as it showcases the various species brought in from several parts of the world. Nestled on the Al Noor Island in Khalid Lagoon, the house is the only attraction of its kind in Sharjah. It is home to around a dozen butterfly species, with around 150 to 200 individual butterflies fluttering about any given day.
