Taiping Lake Gardens

The 62-hectare Taiping Lake Gardens is one of the biggest and most beautiful parks in the country. With a beautiful lake abounding with freshwater fish, lush greenery, a gazebo, and a colorful profusion of flowers, this is a favorite spot with visitors and locals alike. Located also within the gardens is the oldest zoo in the country, the Taiping Zoo. Its bird sanctuary and zoo are favorites among children. Here, monkeys roam freely and are tame enough to be fed by the friendly hand. Other facilities available at the Gardens include a rest house, fishing, and aqua-biking in the lake area.
