No more cars in Lake Gardens


Taiping Lake Garden’s popular raintrees are 120 years old and the council hopes they will live for another 100 more.

PART of Taiping Lake Gardens will be closed off to motorised vehicles from today onwards in a move to preserve its precious rain trees.

Taiping Municipal Council President Datuk Abd Rahim Md Ariff said a 630m-stretch of road, which makes up about a quarter of the entire Lake Gardens loop, will permanently become a pedestrian walk and cycling path after that.
