DEFINITION

A park and tourist attraction that specialises in the care and breeding of birds.

由来
  • 被誉为亚洲最大的飞禽公园于1971年开幕,位于裕廊一带。公园饲养了将近3500只鸟儿,近400种鸟类,其中有一部分是濒临绝种的鸟类。飞禽公园也是亚太地区首个拥有鸟禽医院的公园。
  • 飞禽公园的建设可追溯到当时新加坡的财政部长吴庆瑞博士。1967年,吴部长到访了巴西的飞禽公园,萌生了在新加坡建设飞禽公园的念头。此外,当时新加坡走向工业化和城市化,飞禽公园可以成为国人享受大自然的消闲去处。
  • 到了2020年,裕廊飞禽公园的新所在地预计会设在万礼一带。
ETYMOLOGY
  • Known as the largest bird park in Asia, Singapore’s Bird Park opened in 1971. Located in the Jurong area, the park houses a total of 3,500 birds and close to 400 species, some of which are critically endangered. The Jurong Bird Park was the first park to have a bird hospital in the Asia Pacific region.
  • The construction of the Jurong Bird Park can be attributed to former Minister of Finance Dr Goh Keng Swee. In 1967, Dr Goh visited the Rio Aviary in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, and came up with the idea of building a bird park in Singapore. As Singapore progressed toward industrialisation and urbanisation, the bird park could be a place for Singaporeans to relax and enjoy nature.
  • In 2020, Mandai is expected to be home to the new Bird Park.
