Himalayan Bird Park is also popular as the Himalayan Aviary and it is one of the main places to visit in Shimla.

It is located at close proximity of the Vice-Regal lodge. The park is located at an elevation of 2212 meters above the sea-level. The place is perfect for the Ornithology enthusiast. And it inhabited with various species of birds, indigenous as well as exotic species. 

A large variety of the national bird of Nepal, that is, the beautiful Himalayan Monal, vibrant peacocks, peafowl and pheasants can be seen easily at the heart of the wild aviary. The place is popular as the best place for the nature-enthusiasts and bird lovers as well.

Best time to visit

The best time to visit aviary is during the summers when uncountable and infinite numbers of birds belonging to various species flock over and migrate in the park. In summers, the temperature never falls below 25 degrees in that place.

While in winter, the place remains snow-clad and the birds move back to their own places. SHIMLA TOUR PACKAGES must include this place.
