SPNL Unveils Lebanon’s One and Only Butterfly Garden

SPNL is delighted to announce the opening of Lebanon’s one and only Butterfly Garden—a unique sanctuary where nature, art, and conservation converge to create an inspiring destination for all who love the natural world.

A Garden Like No Other
Nestled in the heart of Lebanon, the Butterfly Garden offers visitors an immersive experience among vibrant wildflowers and graceful, fluttering butterflies. This garden is designed not only as a haven for these essential pollinators but also as an educational resource that highlights their critical role as bioindicators of environmental health. The beauty of the garden is matched only by its commitment to conservation, ensuring that both local flora and fauna can thrive.

“A Living Celebration of Nature”
Dr. Husein Zorkot, the visionary behind this project and renowned Lebanese Lepidopterist and Butterfly Gardener, explains, “Our Butterfly Garden is a living celebration of nature’s resilience and beauty. It reminds us that every butterfly and bloom plays an essential role in our ecosystem—helping pollinate our food crops and enrich our landscapes. We welcome everyone to come, learn, and experience the magic of these delicate creatures up close.”
