Hi I am going to share my experience with an enchanting expedition to Chandigarh Bird Park My recent visit to Chandigarh Bird Park was an enthralling experience that left an indelible mark on my family. The park, located on the outskirts of the city, was a verdant oasis of avian diversity. As a connoisseur of wildlife, I had high expectations, and this avian haven exceeded them. Upon entering the park, we were greeted by an ornate wrought-iron gate that marked the threshold to a world of avian wonders. The sprawling park, meticulously landscaped with native flora, offered a tranquil ambiance. Various species of trees, including the magnificent cassia fistula, provided ample shade for visitors, making it a serene retreat on a sunny day. One remarkable aspect was the park's commitment to conservation. The informative displays educated us about the endangered species residing here, contributing to our understanding of the avian world. The cacophony of birdcalls was enchanting, creating an immersive experience for nature enthusiasts like me. My son, a budding naturalist, was spellbound. His fascination with ornithology reached new heights as he eagerly pointed out a scarlet ibis and eloquently described its unique plumage. The park's guided tours catered to his curiosity, allowing him to learn about the habitat and behavior of the exotic birds that called this sanctuary home. The avifauna on display were not merely picturesque, but also a testament to the park's efforts in avian preservation. Notable inhabitants included the resplendent quetzal, with its resplendent emerald plumage, and the elusive harpy eagle, a raptor of unparalleled magnificence. As we strolled along the meandering pathways, the verdant landscape revealed a panoply of bird species. The park's commitment to biodiversity was evident, and its efforts to maintain a thriving avian ecosystem were commendable. In conclusion, our visit to Chandigarh Bird Park was a rewarding experience. It was not only an educational journey into the world of avian marvels but also an opportunity to reinforce our appreciation for nature. My son's enthusiasm and the park's conservation efforts left us with a sense of optimism for the preservation of these magnificent creatures. We eagerly look forward to future visits and the possibility of witnessing additional avian wonders that may grace this ornithological paradise.

Chandigarh Bird Park offers a quaint experience for bird lovers, though there are areas that could use improvement. The park is relatively small, and while the lush greenery makes for a serene environment, the dirty ponds detract from the overall aesthetic. The swans, however, are a true highlight, their grace and beauty making them a must-see. Some sections of the park are still under construction, so it seems like future improvements are in the works. Unfortunately, the souvenir shop was closed during my visit, but there is a small canteen offering basic refreshments. Additionally, parking is a challenge, which could make accessibility difficult during peak hours. The birds are housed in a large, well-maintained cage where they have plenty of space to fly and move freely, which is a positive aspect of the park. However, the variety of bird species could be expanded to enhance the experience. In addition to the birdwatching experience, Chandigarh Bird Park also features Rashi Vatika, Navgrah Vatika, and Nakshatra Vatika, which add a unique touch for visitors interested in astrology and nature. These sections are dedicated to plants associated with zodiac signs, planets, and constellations, creating a serene environment that blends spirituality with nature. These Vatikas offer a peaceful space for contemplation and learning, making the park not just a haven for bird lovers but also for those intrigued by the connection between plants and cosmic elements. This adds an interesting layer to the overall visit, making the park more diverse in its appeal. While it’s not a place for multiple visits, its tranquil atmosphere and greenery make it worth checking out at least once, especially if you’re in Chandigarh. With a bit more attention to cleanliness and additional bird species, the park could become a more prominent attraction.

This place is just amazing. It's the latest addition to the wildlife vibe of Chandigarh. The bird park is spread across a huge piece of land which is right next to the lake sports club(backside of the club). The entrance is right next to the entrance of lake wildlife sanctuary. The place is divided into 2-3 enclosures of birds that can only be seen from the outside but if you purchase the wings big wonder ticket then you can visit the enclosures where you are allowed to walk and see the birds up close. Be careful not to trouble the birds in any way possible like avoid playing songs, talking loudly, and/or intentionally triggering an aggressive response from any bird. The two main enclosures are divided into water and Aviary birds. The water birds section has two small but nice water fountains along with a good number of ducks. The Aviary section has a variety of parrots and the famous Blue-and-yellow Macaw which are kept in a special closed enclosure inside the Aviary section. You can get yourself a picture clicked with one of the Macaws on your hand but be careful not to touch them or trouble them. The birds park is a big area where the different enclosures are at a distance to each other so carry yourself a few water bottles. It's a must visit if visiting Chandigarh as it's right next to the Sukhna Lake and Rock Garden.

Woth very frequent human visit and presence, birds have also turned firendly and they keep roaming around flying/ moving next to you, therefore making it more pleasant and unexpectedly real life fun. Owing to its architectural design, this park is very informative for everyone especially for young minds of our country. This is one of the places one can count as picnic outing place also and the knowledge enhancing location also for all age groups. One of the most serene and soothing location with endless greenery all around the place making the visit more surreal. To ease out the discomfort due to scorching heat of summers, the free facility of umbrellas has also been provided in the park. The souvenir shop is must visit. Though the prices of most of the souvenirs are on bit higher side and can/ should be reduced, but the items are worth purchasing as memento/ token of visit to this amazing place. This is one of the place, a nature lover can visit endless times without even thinking twice. One must visit this place being in tricity despite the fact that they might be here for just one day.
