Perdana Botanical Garden

Lake gardens is nice and relaxing with lots of beautiful and exotic plant life. It is a good place to go as a family or on a date as it’s quite romantic.
I went here with my boyfriend and we had a lot of fun walking around and exploring. We saw a giant lizard and some monkeys as well which was cool. There are lots of interesting plants and trees and it’s a very large area.
Would recommend for all people as something to do on the weekend or for tourists in KL.

The lake gardens is a really nice and relaxing place to chill out during the weekends, during the morning hours or maybe even late evening. Its fun for the whole family from kids to the old folks, everyone can chill here and spend good quality family time. The lake gardens are really beautiful and i enjoy coming here on weekends to jog or just walk around.
Its the perfect place for a picnic with friends and family. For valentines day we actually wanted to have a picnic here but then changed our minds at the last minute because we read reviews that this plae is not as suitable cause its super busy on weekends.
I agree on this because yes during weekends it does get super busy and can sometimes be annoying because of all the bicycles riding past. But still its a fun place to exercise and get some fresh air.

Wondering where to bring your loved one during holiday and weekend? You can try go to the lake gardens and have a stroll over there and enjoy the birds churpings around the garden, It may sounds really comfort but when you are back I will walk around at the garden and spend time with my family on a picnic or something.
This garden is huge, People are here to jogging, exercice, and sun tanned maybe? Therei s people even doing theor production like shooting music video, cooperate video and also TVC at the garden but don’t tell the whole world. chilly place with not noisy car.
Awesome place to spend your end of the day with your family or friends :)

The lake garden is named because of it’s lake, therefore you will not miss the chance seeing this enormous lake while you jog along the garden. This is my childhood sports playground. And also my parent’s dating spot during those days.
We used to have family day out over the weekend jogging around the pavements. While jogging, make sure you check out a place where you can climb on some realllllyyyy long stairs and train your stamina for it. There are 2 different jogging paths, one on flat ground and another on a hill slope. You can choose whichever you want to go ahead with.
Play grounds are segregated into a few areas. Families with children can totally go to all of them to let your kids enjoy their day! There are also activities for the elderlies. They have taichi classes early in the morning.
I love how well kept the whole park is and it appears to be a good scenery for photoshoots. I have done photoshoots with my friend previously as well and the pictures look amazing!
This is also a spot where the Standard Chartered marathon will pass by. So the locals will definitely know where this place is :)
There’s also a bird park, museums, and some national centers attached to the park. If family day went out of ideas, why not try these locations? :)
Toilets are clean, but they will charge per usage. The last time was RM 0.20 per entry, not sure if they changed their price.
There’s also kayaking opportunities at the lake. If you are more towards the laid back and relax type, make sure to check it out!

One of my favourite green spots in the city! I come here a lot with my kids and have organised a few breakfast playdates with other mommy friends. I love that kids can run around freely in the big landscaped gardens while us parents can laze around on the grass. I actually prefer to bring a few mats and sit on the grass with a good picnic but there are also many tables and gazebos available for use. However, the gazebos are always full and the tables are usually too — although I have come by before 10am and encountered a couple of empty ones.
There are two enormous playground for kids here and it always warms my heart to see kids playing here as I feel kids these days tend to be too focused on gadgets. They have lots of swings, slides and see saws. Everytime my daughter comes here she gets a little crazy wondering where to go next! After playing on the playground equipment for a while we walk down towards the middle of the park where there is a little kiosk selling snacks and ice-​cream. We always get some ice-​cream as a treat.
You can also drive out a little and go to the bird park or butterfly farm if you want. I personally just love exploring the beautifully landscaped and well-​maintained gardens for a couple of hours with my family.
Parking can be tricky if you come here after 9am. You may have to drive around for a bit before you get lucky and find a spot. People tend to park on the left side of the street (which is actually illegal) but with the lack of spots, I guess you can’t really blame them. Also, if bringing kids, bear in mind that it gets unbelievably hot after 10am so get here early or else come in the late afternoon.

I used to go to Lake Gardens very often as a kid and somehow just stopped goin for some time. Recently, I went back for an event held there and I realised how much I have missed that place. Lake Gardens is a very very big park that welcomes hundreds of customers each day. Its a parked filled with so much greenery and a lake. It is my go to place to just have a chilled weekend away from the busyness of the city. When you’re in Lake Gardens, you would feel that you’re in an entirely new place far from the city. It offers a really peaceful vibe and gorgeous scenery. There are many activities that can be done in Lake Gardens such a cycling, having casual picnic, organizing events like family days or even going there just for a walk and to enjoy the fresh air.
Whatever you purpose of visit is, I guarantee you that you will love this place. Its so serene and calming as well. Also, there is an Orchid Garden filled with over 800 species of orchids that you can look at. Overall, Lake Gardens is a very beautiful place and I would encourage both locals and tourists to visit.

This is near to where I used to study in my university days. My classmates and I were brought here to have a land survey project which we completed in two days. The topography of the park makes surveying difficult especially at locations where steep slope is present. Some classmates of mine had trouble setting up their surveying equipment in those specific areas making their job hard. It takes time to walk the entire garden. Most of us only stay put within the vicinity of the spot which we are assigned as the equipments we carried were too heavy. This is a garden which I will come for recreation activities.

I’m a big fan of Lake Gardens. It’s a place where I take the family for weekend picnics, hangout for play dates and jog with friends once a week. The park is a good size for walking and has a very nice landscape. It also has two huge playgrounds where the kids can play.
My favourite part of the park is the Boat House area near the lake which overlooks the city. Have spent many many weekends just chilling here and enjoying some quiet family time.
The best time to come to the park is either morning or late afternoon (you do not want to get stuck here in the afternoon, the heat is unbearable). I’ve not personally encountered any mozzie attacks before, but do put on some insect repellent if you’re risk adverse.
I would give this place 5-​stars if not for the terrible parking space here. I usually have to make at least 3 – 4 rounds before finding a spot. Hope they find a solution for that soon.

If you like to walk through nature and spend some quality time in a green environment, surrounded by nature, then you have to go to Lake Garden.
This is the perfect place to relax, and escape from the crowded life from KL.
What you have to know about this parc is the fact that its huge. You need to pay a couple of visits to this place in order to see everything. The parc is splitted in 5 parts: botanical garden, birds & butterfly parc, a couple of museums and a huge lake. Until now I’ve been only to the butterfly area and the botanical garden and I have to say that it’s amazing. I have to go another 2 times in order to finish all the areas.
If you wanna visit the place, I recommend you to go in the mornings, because in KL is very hot, and it will be hard to walk through all the area.
The entry in the parc is for free and if you wanna go to the butterfly, birds parc and museums you need to pay, but the ticket is cheep. One interested thing which you need to know about the tickets is the fact that if you have a MayBank credit card you will pay the locals fee.

I love Parks don’t you love parks?
I love the fact that in KL you have so many options to actually go outside in nature even though it’s a big city and it has skyscrapers, you can still find spots like this.
Lake Gardens is beyond amazing, the lake, the walking area, the picnic area, is just so beautiful. I would go to here absolutely all the time as it’s so close to the bird park and the butterfly one, I could lose myself here for hours at a time. It’s a really nice option in a very big city and I’m very happy to see a big city who actually cares and has this kind of environment in it.
Its the perfect place for a family gathering, a hang out, a romantic walk and a great way to spend your weekend surrounded by nature.

A great place to walk and jog with bridge and a great big lake, many people shoot here for wedding, portraits and sightseeing. There are pathways to walk on and great background. Often i come here to jog and other days i just come here to take pictures, they are also open for outdoor events and many more.
This place is connected to different garden such as rose garden, hibiscus garden, orchids and many more. They are well maintained but too many mosquitoes and the lake is not maintained well enough it looks polluted.
There are couple of fun run events here to promote a healthy lifestyle and promote the lake. Also there is playground for kids to play.

Fancy for a jogging with a nice view and beautiful decorations? Try out Lake Gardens! I’ve only been there once, and I already loved the atmosphere. It was one fine Saturday morning, where my friend took me jogging to another location aside from our usual place.
Though parking was a little hard to find, the prize is absolutely stunning. The park is really beautiful with the lake, couples having picnic and tourists everywhere. Though I used to have a membership at the Lake Club, this place didn’t cross my mind at all. I wanted to actually return here but I haven’t got rhe chance to…
Anyways, give it a go, if you are one of those marathon runners, run around this park and enjoy the view, you might not realize that you actually circled it around many times!

I just love a calm, peaceful walk in a park.
Lake Gardens is a perfect spot for a picnic or just a nice Saturday hangout with friends!
The view is just outstanding. It is so nice to run away from those sky scrapers into nature sometimes. To have a breath of fresh air and just enjoy the sounds of birds in the trees.
SO calm and peaceful. It is also a great place to go for a romantic date. I ca just imagine all the beautiful stories that can be told walking through those tiny roads. :)
Enjoy your break from the Bic KL city life! :)

Lake Gardens is an absolutely beautiful Lake with beautiful architecture and attention to details put into every piece of it! I absolutely loved it and it made me feel like I am out of the city! It’s the perfect place for a nice pick nick between friends and family! it’s well taken care of and has a small cafeteria inside! definitely full of tourists instead of locals which is sad really! the place deserves more credit!
It’s under constructions right now, they are fixing the area near the white bride over the lake, I hope they fix it in a way you would be able to cross the lake in 5 min instead of probably 30 min if you have to go around the lake.
They have a place where kids can play and have a good time! and give you the space to relax if you have kids :)
I wished they have bikes to rent because they you can really explore the whole lake without getting too tires and taking so much time: D
There is this open like mini bus– train that you can sign up for and it’ll pick you up and give you a tour, I didn’t like it as it seemed to drive too fast for such a place :)
Make sure to go by! there are some small wood cabins where you can nap too :)

Lake Gardens is one of my favourite parks to go to for a jog. The jogging track encircling around the lake is about 2 km, which gives me a good idea of how much I want to run. Most importantly the atmosphere here feels fresh with the lush greenery surrounding you.
There are many landmarks around the park which you can take a detour and visit like the Bird Park, Butterfly Park and the Deer Park. Many do not know this but the deer park is actually free and you can feed them. As for the bird and butterfly park, showing your i. c guarantees a discount. If you’re not up to walking the awfully huge park you can also get a ride on the transportation provided for 50 cents. The driver will take you round the park and you’ll be able to cover a large area with moving a single muscle.
When I was just a child, my parents would take me here regularly to play in the playgrounds or play badminton. There are two separate playgrounds which you can have a go at. One is just right by the carpark.
For orchid lovers, they Orchid Gardens is situated right inside the park and you’ll be able to have a look at their vast collection of orchid housed there. If I am not mistaken they also sell them too. Worth checking it out.
Overall the park is a great place for recreational activities and it is a great escape from the concrete jungles.
