Nothing soothes the soul better than the sight, sound and sensation of mesmerising waterfalls. Located close to KL City, the cool crystal-clear waters of Templer Park’s cascading waterfalls provide a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Arrange a day trip out of Kuala Lumpur to explore the Templer Park and rainforest, teeming with wildlife, bubbling brooks, and roaring rapids. Keep your eyes peeled for giant lizards on the grounds, cheeky monkeys on the trees, and circling eagles above the canopies! 

Here’s a tip for you. To take advantage of Templer Park’s proximity to Batu Caves, we recommend that you visit Templer Park in the morning, followed by the Batu Caves in the afternoon.

There is something magical about fireflies illuminating the night with a touch of whimsical wonder. Book a slow evening boat ride to witness the sublime beauty of glowing fireflies flitting amongst the mangrove forest in Selangor River. Do opt for a quieter non-motorised boat so that you can get closer to the firefly colonies without disturbing the peace.

Prefer to enjoy nature close to the city? Located throughout the city of Kuala Lumpur are pockets of nature—they include a closely located Bird Park, Hibiscus Garden and Butterfly Park. 

Visitors to the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park can walk through a humongous 20.9-acre aviary, home to over 200 species of local and foreign birds, some of which are free to soar around the free-flight zone built to resemble their natural habitat. Try to catch a male peacock fanning out its plumage for a perfect Instagram shot.
