The SITES Silver certified Mandai Wildlife West and Bird Paradise are part of an ambitious project which will see the precinct transform into an exciting for our guests to enjoy and connect with nature. Mandai Wildlife West serves as the gateway to Bird Paradise and Rainforest Wild Asia. It features a landscaped deck connecting visitors seamlessly between the two wildlife parks.
Mandai Wildlife West is a public space, offering playgrounds, diverse F&B options, and a welcoming arrival area. Inspired by a rich variety of flora and ecosystems, this public space provides an engaging experience for visitors.
Bird Paradise is home to 3,500 birds from over 400 species. The park is designed to encourage discovery at every turn, featuring immersive walk-through aviaries representing different world habitats.
The development of Mandai Wildlife West and Bird Paradise at the Mandai Wildlife Reserve was a thoughtful and meticulous process, guided by a deep respect for the environment and a commitment to sustainability. The chosen site for the Mandai Wildlife West and Bird Paradise was previously a village and an orchid garden. An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) was conducted to understand how the project might affect local ecosystem, which subsequently shaped the park’s design as the integrated design team ensured that every decision made was in harmony with the environment. The team took great care to ensure that native flora species were preserved by carefully designing buildings and walkways around existing mature clusters of trees preserved on site. Trees that had to be felled during construction were repurposed into furniture and structures within the park.
