New home for Blenheim’s butterflies

BLENHEIM PALACE'S Butterfly House has re-opened its doors to visitors following a £100,000 renovation project. Youngsters helped release dozens of exotic butterfly species from Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines in to the new house.

As well as creating an entirely new structure to house the collection, the renovation has also increased the overall size of the butterfly area, and doubled the size of the water feature. There is also a new hatchery section where visitors can see the pupae develop within their chrysalises before being released in to the main area.
