Not just Singapore’s largest outlet mall, IMM is also the spot for butterfly encounters in the middle of your shopping trip. Say what?
Picture a day out at the mall. What do you do? Shop and eat? How about visiting an insect cave or watching a parrot show? IMM takes you on a trip to the wild side with Flutter of Wonder. If you’re looking for a more exciting shopping spot for your Christmas spree, this is it.
If you need a breather from hitting the shops, venture into the butterfly aviary and scorpion cave to explore the wildlife on display including five butterfly species. There’s even a curator who will be happy to give you a tour. Watch the video for a taste of what you can experience…

You might be familiar with the Large Tree Nymph Butterfly (pictured top), also known as the Rice Paper or the Paper Kite for its delicate wings. More eye-catching species include The Scarlet Mormon with its distinct red markings. On the other end of the colour wheel, The Swift Peacock and Green Banded Peacock sport bright green patterns as they flutter past.
Fun fact: did you know that we have a national butterfly? It’s the Common Rose (above). Spot them by the white-on-black spots that the females have on their wings, alongside the dashes of red that mark their body.
While you’re at it, why not get one painted on at the face painting station? Little ones would also love the leaf craftwork and butterfly wings postcard-making workshops for a souvenir to take home. Plus, it keeps them busy while you’re picking out your Christmas presents!
This experiential event also features interactive parrot shows – yes, that’s what the squawking was all about. Seriously, we can’t think of any other spot where you can experience so many animal wonders in the middle of a shopping trip.
