3 weeks agoVisited the bamboo park in the Putuo village during Sat pm. There are some photo taking spots with one small playground for kids. Entrance fee is RM 5 for Malaysia citizen and 10 for non-Malay citizens, kid below 12 free which is more for their maintenance. Some hot popular spots need to queue as quite some people. Easily spending 1-2 hrs inside with kids, we arrive around 4pm and out at 6pm as they are closing at 6pm. Also tried their bamboo ice-cream with two flavors mocha or charcoal, cost RM10 each. It is a nice place for a quick afternoon activities.

a month agoRecommended to check out this place. Tranquil and quiet on a weekend late afternoon. Many photo spots and the temple is at the other side. However, weather was really warm when visiting. Luckily the cafe is good and relaxing with air conditioning.

a month agoScenic place with photo friendly setups.
Entrance fee is RM5 For bamboo forest.
The temple inside is beautiful and clean. As a tourist we found the prayer walk very fascinating. A good place to spend a day along with the kids. Parking place is available. It was easy to take Grab while going from Johor, but it was difficult to find one and had to wait for almost 45 minutes while returning.
The ice cream served in bamboo cups are very tasty but have to wait in the queue for some time. -

This was an exciting walk with many intriguing photo opportunities. There is a great adventure playground for kids. The terrapins were also very cool.
