A relaxing place to appreciate nature. You are going to take a small boat to cross the lake to the other end. There you can relax on the native Malay houses, enjoy the playground and there is a mini zoo also. There are trees and shady areas to have picnic. The boat will cross back and forth to pick up the visitors every 30mins more or less so you don't need to worry on the ride back. There are fishes and turtles you can feed on the side of the lake for the kids to have fun.

The Taiping Zoo has a ton of animals and is a pretty neat place to visit. The cages are not necessarily comforting and we were definitely scared the animals could escape more than once. For example, as I took this photo, Marty was walking briskly away from the tiger enclousure, telling me to follow him immediately due to the lack of barriers between him and us. Monkeys roam free throughout the entire zoo- we assume they were wild but who knows. Luckily we made it out alive! But don't let that deter you, it is an rather unique, fun, exhilarating experience to say the least.

Top Perak Hotel Reviews

Cititel Express Ipoh

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, walkable to the historical sites, shopping and food! Staff was friendly and helpful!"

MÙ Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The best hotel of our trip so far! Spotlessly clean room with modern furnishings - big enough for two of us with luggage to be comfortable. Super friendly and helpful staff that offered us a free early check-in at 1pm. Great location in new town (although be prepared for a bit of a hike if you're walking from the railway station). Close to markets and restaurants. We'd definitely stay again."
