Just a few minutes' walk from the old city center and a fun break from its many Shakespeare-themed attractions, Stratford Butterfly Farm consists of a number of tropical greenhouses with countless free-flying butterflies.
Other highlights include exotic birds (some of them also free-flying), as well as the fascinating Caterpillar Room, with its butterfly breeding programs.
Other insects on display include stick insects, praying mantis, and giant millipedes, along with a variety of spider species including tarantulas; black widows; and the massive Goliath Birdeater, the world's largest arachnid.
