If you are going with a family with kids, this place is a must visit. Kids thoroughly enjoyed here. You can easily spend 1-2 hours in this. This park has all the farm animals - rabbits, guinea pigs, pony horse, goats, cows, different species of hens and roosters from different parts of the world, colorful chickens, and different kinds of parrots. Fees: Entrance fees per adult is 300/-. I guess if the kid's age is 6 or below, the entrance is free. We too felt the price is little on the higher side, but it was totally worth it. In this 300, you get to see the entire farm animals park + any one of the following: 7D cinema, fish spa, paint ball and few more things. We chose fish spa for ourselves, and we took our kids to 7D cinema. You can chose an activity separately by paying 100/-. Both the experiences were good. Kids below below 3 years are not allowed in 7D cinema. Farm Animals: We visited the place at morning 8.30 (opening time) itself. The animals were being moved in cages to their respective compartments. The kids were very excited to see them. The staffs over there, were very courteous and allowed us to touch the animals. Parrots: This is the main place where your kids can enjoy a lot. At the entrance of parrot cage, you will be given handful of sunflower seeds. You need to feed them (not all at a time) to the parrots there. Don't miss to feed the bird 'funky'. He is the biggest in the cage who scares other parrots. Cafeteria: Make sure you take something to eat for your kids. There is no restriction on taking the food items inside. But you are not allowed to feed them to the animals. We ordered noodles for our kids at the rate of 50/- per plate. We felt that was costly for a plate of noodles. Overall experience: This is a must place to visit once when you are in Yelagiri. Anyway, you don't have many places to visit in Yelagiri other than this, boating and couple of trekking and temple places. So, make sure this is on your list to visit first in the morning. Caution: There is another park with almost the same name 'fundora park' at the entrance of this park. Make sure you don't fall prey into that dirty trick.

The Murugan temple is located on a small hill with picturesque surroundings on all the sides of the hillock. Thougb it is so small hill with a few hundreds of steps, there is a kaccha riad to reach near to the top, perhaps with a very few steps to climb then also. The presiding deity Sri Subramanya Swamy idol also is beautiful and there are other sannidhis of Sri Vinayaka and Navagraha idols too. Worthy of visiting especially in the cool early mornings or sunsetting evenings not only to see the idols but also to receive the Lord's blessings too.

Just opposite to the Lake there is a Nature Park. Again it was one of the finest parks I visited in recent time. It has a water fountain, Rose Garden kept in greenhouse, Aquarium, Musical fountain, artificial waterfalls and lots of green and colourful flowers. You can easily spend 2 to 3 hrs relaxing in the park.
