This Malaysian City Blew Me Away! - Taiping, Perak

It was my final day in the wonderful city of Taiping and I still had lots to discover on the city's heritage trail. Today's adventures would take in more colonial buildings, Malaysia's first museum, Malaysia's first prison, a Burmese pool, a war cemetery, an abandoned hotel, a stunning park built in an old tin mine and some of the craziest trees I've ever seen! Not bad for a city that doesn't get too many tourists.
I loved my time spent in this fascinating city. Make sure to include it in your travel plans if you are in the area.
Join me as I try to complete the heritage trail before the rain came!

Just some Comments. The tree that's propped up on the road at the Taiping Lake Gardens actually fell across the road during one of the thunderstorms as it's roots were uprooted. Despite it's age the Town Council decided to save it, previously that road was open to vehicular traffic but I can't remember when it was closed to traffic. Btw that roaring sound is made by the Tigers of the Taiping zoo part of which is just behind the wall to the left of where you were walking, yes there are elephants in the zoo but they're near the Zoo entrance which is much further than where you were 😄

I would like to suggest you go to the next town, Kuala Kangsar (its the royal seat/town of Perak), nice buildings.....

Thankyou muchly for promoting my hometown mate, it’s a hidden gem that most foreign tourists missed unfortunately. FYI, the Casuarina Inn you shot, was known as the new rest house (in the 70s), the old rest house being opposite King Edward 7 Primary 1 school (near the Telegraph museum).

I loved Taiping. It has so much history and should attract way more tourists. This was my second visit.
