Birds Garden is located in the northwest of Tehran in the middle of Lavizan Forest.  The garden is designed in a real natural condition and it is available for visitors from 9:00 to 18:00. It is constructed in two phases in an area with 23 hectares wide. The first phase was constructed in 2013 and includes birds that are kept in cages or cannot fly.  The second phase, which has a smaller area than the first phase, is under construction. This phase includes birds that can fly. Different species of parrots, pigeons and doves, some species of bird of prey and Iranian and African ostriches are some but not all the species that are kept in Birds Garden in Tehran. Right now, more than 6500 birds with 55 different species are kept in this garden. One of the unique features of the garden is the freedom of birds in the environment, meaning that about 90% of the birds are kept in a completely open space and in a cage-free environment.
