Lonely Planet review for Bird Hospital

At the eastern (Red Fort) end of Chandni Chowk is the 16th-century Digambara Jain Temple which houses the fascinating bird hospital run by the Jains, who believe in the preservation of all life.

    Charity of a different kind

    sachin_oxford recommends this,

    Everybody these days talk about loving animals; few talk about loving birds and still few actually do care about them. Charity Birds Hospital situated in the Jain Temple campus is a stone's throw away from the Red Fort.

    Every year, thousands of birds get treated for free. But mind it, they are not given away as pets. Instead they are released in their natural habitat after they are cured. Birds are born to fly and this is what the people here believe. Please give them your support. Even a dollar or pound is enough to feed hundreds of birds everyday. Infact, even you can feed these birds. If you don't want to donate, you can still help them by visiting the hospital. Entry is free for all.
