🌿【Trip Moment】Taiping · Slow time pampered by rain

🌿【Trip Moment】Taiping · Slow time pampered by rain There is a city in Malaysia called Taiping, which means "peace". Rain is a daily routine here, but the strange thing is that the more rainy it is, the more gentle it feels. This time I came to Taiping, I didn't check in at the popular Internet celebrity spots, but just chose to walk slowly in the old town. Sitting by the Taiping Lake, watching the ripples on the lake; walking under the century-old rain tree, it seems to be surrounded by a whole green roof, so quiet that you can hear your heartbeat. I drank a cup of hand-brewed coffee in a coffee shop on the old street. An old man chatted with me and said that he had been here since he was a child, watching this city slowly grow old, but never wanted to leave. I understand him. Taiping is not as prosperous as Kuala Lumpur or as lively as Penang, but it has a slow rhythm that is just right, suitable for quiet daze and for rediscovering yourself.
