Taiping | Mangrove Forest

#springitinerary Taiping isn’t just about Taiping Lake — I highly recommend visiting Perak’s largest mangrove forest for a stroll and some amazing photo ops. It’s super photogenic from every angle! I went around 1 PM in the afternoon, and it wasn’t too hot at all — there was a nice cool breeze. Pro tip: Wear white clothes for the best photos! • Remember to bring some cash. PS: Last time I went, they didn’t accept Touch ‘n Go payments yet, so cash only. #malaysia
