Biking @ Taman Pertanian Malaysia

I have got no idea there is such a place exist in Malaysia until a friend of mine invited to join them for a biking tour. 

My friend said we gotta be early there to get a good bicycle so we arrived around 8.45am and who knows there are more early birds waiting already. I though it was just a leisure ride around the lake, taking pictures....but haha....it has got uphill/ downhill and the place is huge. I have chosen the wrongest outfit of the day, t-shirt with jeans.    

Bukannya cannot cycle but it just feel not so comfortable.  


The place is surrounded by tall trees and plants, finally these city people have some fresh air to breathe. 

And the huge taman consists of few other small tamans like "taman buah-buahan", "taman bunga", "taman haiwan" and maybe some others which we didn't have the stamina to explore already.

This parrot know how to say: "hi, assamualaikum, apa khabar, bye and @$*&@$$ ". She was showing off her tough and sharp mouth by pecking the tree stem. We gave her a round of applause and she got so happy! haha...cute her..

A very fun place for outing and I guarantee you will sweat A LOT. Make sure you have the right outfit or you will be suffering painful butt like me =(

I don't really know how to direct you to the place. All I know it is at Shah Alam, say 20 minutes from Sunway area? But you can get directions from maps.google by typing "Taman Pertanian Malaysia". It shows clear direction from your departure point to your desired destination.
