Butterfly Papilion At Honor Heights Park Of Oklahoma Is Home To The State S Largest Butterfly House

One of my favorite things to do in the spring and summer is to visit the Butterfly Papilion at Honor Heights Park in Muskogee. It’s the largest butterfly house in the state, and you can visit starting the Saturday before Mother’s Day weekend. There are over 26 varieties of butterflies that are native to Oklahoma, and as you stroll through the open-air attraction, they’ll fly all around you.
