A good place to spend in weekends with family and friends, get sweaty and release all the pressure from daily life. Getting here is quite easy (MAP), just follow the direction to Klang with Federal Highway and look for signboard directing to Taman Pertanian Bukit Cahaya or any other names mentioned above (some road signs using different names, so don't get confused). Parking space is quite sufficient. Admission fee for adult is RM3.00 while children RM1.00.
You can either walk or rent a bicycle to venture through the park. Free shuttle bus service is also provided to get around the park with ease. There are many activities for visitors too. Kayaking, flying fox, Skytrex, camping, paintball; just make your choice. One of the main attraction is the four-season house (temperate climate) where the theme will change every three months. Unfortunately, it was under maintenance during our visit. Other than that, there are also lakes, animal garden, herbs garden, cactus garden, and also tropical orchard.
From the attractions mentioned above, you can enjoy the biodiversity of the park. Animals like horses, deers, rabbits, and birds (cockatoo, pigeons, peacock, etc) are fenced or caged for viewing. If you are patient enough insects and bugs are just in front of your eyes. Botanic enthusiasts will enjoy the trees and flowers all around the park.
Morning will be the suitable time to visit the park but you may have to spend the whole day for a complete visit. Bring along a cap and shades or sun lotion for the afternoon session. When the sun gets mean, it is really mean. Unless you are prepared for an uneven tan. :P
I gave an 2.5 out of 5 rating for the park. The park could be more attractive if they put more efforts, especially the themed gardens. The cleanliness was still acceptable. We can't expect more when a place is crowded with human.
Until next time, we might be coming for the extreme activities.
