A '''butterfly house''', or '''conservatory''' is a facility which is specifically intended for the breeding and display of [[butterflies]] with an emphasis on education. Some butterfly houses also feature other insects and arthropods. Butterfly houses are owned and operated by museums, universities, non-profit corporations, and private individuals as part of their residence; as well as small businesses that are owner operated.

The pattern of [[butterfly]] parks is not new. In fact, such exhibits of butterflies were extremely popular in [[England]] by the year 1970. Penang Butterfly Farm in [[Malaysia]] was introduced on March 29, 1986; it was the [[tropical]] world's first creepy crawly and live butterfly haven. In the United States, the first butterfly stop, [[Butterfly World]], opened in [[Coconut Creek]], [[Florida]] in 1988.<ref>[https://www.arenaflowers.co.in/blog/butterflies-park-are-you-visiting-butterfly-park/ Butterflies Parks] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170503075150/https://www.arenaflowers.co.in/blog/butterflies-park-are-you-visiting-butterfly-park/ |date=3 May 2017 }}</ref>

This is a list of butterfly houses or conservatories around the world. For aquaria, see List of aquaria. For dolphinariums, see List of dolphinariums. For a list of zoos, see List of zoos. For an annotated list of defunct zoos and aquariums, see List of former zoos and aquariums.

A butterfly house, or conservatory is a facility which is specifically intended for the breeding and display of butterflies with an emphasis on education. Some butterfly houses also feature other insects and arthropods. Butterfly houses are owned and operated by museums, universities, non-profit corporations, and private individuals as part of their residence; as well as small businesses that are owner operated.

The pattern of butterfly parks is not new. In fact, such exhibits of butterflies were extremely popular in England by the year 1970. Penang Butterfly Farm in Malaysia was introduced on March 29, 1986; it was the tropical world's first creepy crawly and live butterfly haven. In the United States, the first butterfly stop, Butterfly World, opened in Coconut Creek, Florida in 1988.[1]
