What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Islamabad's bird aviaries offer charming, interactive experiences, particularly for families. Visitors enjoy the variety of birds and opportunities for feeding. However, some reviews highlight concerns about animal welfare and cleanliness, suggesting room for improvement in animal care and habitat maintenance.
"The Bahria Enclave Bird Aviary is a charming, compact spot primarily serving residents within the gated community. While its location makes it less accessible for those from the main city, it offers a pleasant, short outing for families with young children.
The aviary features a modest collection of birds, including peacocks, parrots, swans, and pigeons. The ticket price is reasonable, making it a decent value for a quick visit. Many visitors, like one reviewer, have had a "wonderful time" and found it to be "truly a sight to behold."
However, consistency is an issue. A common point of concern, echoed by multiple guests, is the well-being of the animals. One visitor was severely disappointed, noting the presence of only one bird species (macaques) alongside lethargic-looking larger animals, which detracted significantly from the experience. This highlights a potential discrepancy in the collection's management.
Furthermore, while the birds are the main attraction, cleanliness can be a problem, especially during hot weather. As another reviewer wisely pointed out, "Proper care is paramount," and more emphasis on hygiene and the birds' health and safety is needed."

"I paid the visit to this place while in Islamabad a few days ago. It's located inside the Bahria Enclave so it may be difficult for the main city's residents to visit here often. But it's the best thing for people living inside the society. It's a small but good place for kids with a few bird species like Peacock, Parrot, Swan, Pegion and etc. Ticket prices are also reasonable."
