Find colours of the rainbow sprinkled around Jurong Bird Park this Chinese New Year with life-sized 3D art displays of birds, vibrant flower arrangements, a Zodiac Quest, the quintessential lion dance, big head doll and God of Fortune appearances!
Starting 1 February, the park will be transformed into a colourful haven with artfully decorated 3D life-sized figurines of birds such as flamingos, peacocks, swans and macaws. This year is special, as the first day of Chinese New Year is also Valentine’s Day. Come by the scenic African Waterfall Aviary at the bird park with your loved ones and take in the beautiful plumage of the masked lovebirds as you rekindle your love for each other with the tallest man-made waterfall in the background.
Chinese New Year is not complete without the proverbial God of Fortune, and he will be right here at the Jurong Bird Park, blessing everyone with good fortune, and if you like, he can also read your palm and tell what the new year heralds for you. All is not sedate at the bird park, as there will be a lion performing on the high pole with another on the ground with a big head doll mingling with guests, providing plenty of photographic opportunities for visitors.
Don’t miss the special Chinese New Year edition of the Birds n Buddies show too where Sassy, the park’s celebrity cockatoo, will be delivering red packets to some lucky visitors. Adding to the auspicious mood is the intelligent Amigo, a yellow-naped Amazon, who will be wishing everyone ‘Gong Xi Fa Cai.’
There will also be a Zodiac Quest based on the 12 animals of the Chinese horoscope for visitors to participate in, and as they meander around the bird park, they will discover what 2010 has in store for them.
Come visit the Jurong Bird Park during Chinese New Year and soak in the festivities!
