The next spot we going to explore is Taiping Lake Garden which offer the best of Mother Nature. 
If you were a amateur photographer, you shouldn't miss it.
 The amazing of Rain Trees & Migratory bird that stop by here
 will definitively make the sound of 'chik chak' of
 your camera non stop...


Walking on this street, how relaxing is~~~~

How nice is this!!!!

You may hardly find such this view in the city now.


After a tiring day of excitement, the best place to retire 
is the nearby Maxwell Hill(Bukit Larut)
because here is not nearly as
 developed as more celebrated hill resort,
it preserves much more of the atmosphere of a colonial hill station.





Here guys,So, what you waiting for??? 

Drop by and be enchanted to the natural beauty!!!
