  Butterfly Wonderland is the largest indoor butterfly conservatory in America and should certainly top your indoor family fun list of "Things to do in Arizona". The magnificent glass conservatory provides the ideal tropical rainforest habitat for thousands of butterflies from around the world to fly freely. Setting the stage before you enter the conservatory is a 3D movie chronicling the amazing journey of the monarch butterfly, followed by a tour through the Emergence Gallery where you'll be inches away from live chrysalis as they emerge into beautiful butterflies. Along with the butterflies, you'll have the chance to see other rainforest animals such as insects and spiders in the Spineless Giants Gallery, colorful and exotic fish in the Tropical Waters Gallery, and unique reptiles and amphibians in the Rainforest Reptiles Gallery.
