The Aging Rain Trees at Taiping Lake

The Rain Trees at Taiping Lake are aging and have reached the end of their lifespan. Many people say that visiting Taiping Lake is not complete without seeing the Rain Trees and taking a photo on the grand Rain Tree avenue. However, not many know why the Rain Trees at Taiping Lake have been falling one by one in recent years. It's because the Rain Trees have aged and reached the end of their lifespan. The Rain Tree is a unique large tree native to South America, with a lifespan of about 140 to 200 years. The first Rain Tree was planted at Taiping Lake by the British around 1876, which means it has been over 140 years. Therefore, in recent years, we have seen the Rain Trees by the lake falling one by one, unable to withstand the ravages of time, and gradually bidding farewell to us. 📍 Address: Taiping Lake, Malaysia 💰 Average Cost: Free 🏖️ Environment/Facilities: Beautiful and relaxing
