Back To Origin ▶ Herb Garden

Welcome to Travel Divine!
We would like to bring you to
The World of the Origin - Herb Garden!
What comes into your mind when you heard this?
It sounds like a big garden with a lots of herbs in it?
No doubt, you are kinda right,
but for us,
it's totally different from what you thought.

Anyway, the first reaction from the majority of us were like
"Oh My God! Do we really gonna go there?"
this was such a freaking boring place!
(We guess you will probably have the same thinking!)
By the way,
our last decision was
"Herb Garden!"
(Perhaps you might change your mind about Herb Garden after this!)



Now let us brief you about 
[The Histories of Herb Garden]
Herb Garden is located at Perak state, Malaysia. 
22-hectares wide garden 
with more than 500 various types of 
medicated herbs, cosmetics, aroma-therapeutic plants and so on.
There are some facilities like
fishing spots that nearby the lake,
camping sites that surrounded by plants,
and some picnic spots that are shady enough to
allow you spread out your picnic mat
and have fun for the whole day!



Are You Ready?
[Let's Back to the Origin!]
We went to the Herb Garden by cars.
It took roughly 10 minutes for us to reach there

not 10 minutes from KL,
but 10 minutes from Gopeng Plaza Toll!

The entrance of the Herb Garden
 
Greens are covered over the whole garden.
It's like a "Giant Green Palace"!
Whoops! Kindly reminded that
"No Plucking or Consuming Plants without Permission"!
 One of the natural walking path
that leads to the world of the origin...
Greens are everywhere!

Information boards are everywhere too!

The garden has a “systematic” walking path
so that you wouldn't miss out anything!

The Only Thing That We Brought Back
[The Only Memories]

"Haha! The name of this plant was really funny."

He heard that this Solanum Mamosun can be eaten raw,
but
"Excuse me...Can you please control yourself!"
Haha!
Yeap! There are good for your health!
Look! The plants are so colourful under the Sunlight!

1, 2, 3...
There are more and more fishes inside the lake!

Look at that fellow!
"You again? What are you doing there now?!"
"Catching those fishes!" 
A nice place to chill with friends.

Saw that coconut?
Let's experience the tropical life here!

There was a long track.
It has reminded me,
how long you didn't review back your past?
Perhaps,
You just left the best behind you...
