Taiping Zoo

The 36-acre Zoo Taiping features five main sections including Malaysian Rainforest Experience, Lowland Forest, Riverine Forest, African Savanna, and Elephants of Perak River.

Founded in 1961, Zoo Taiping stands as Malaysia's first zoological park, establishing its presence shortly after the nation gained independence from British rule.

The zoo functions as an educational center where local students and families learn about wildlife conservation through specialized programs and direct animal observation.

Visitors can access the zoo by taking a bus to Kamunting Terminal or train to Taiping Station, with operating hours from 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM.

The Night Safari, introduced in 2003, employs specialized lighting systems that replicate moonlight, enabling visitors to observe nocturnal animals in their active state.
