Hi peeps. Now I would like to proceed with my second entry
which is the interesting place for this time is Malacca or also known as the
Historical City.
The interesting places that I’ve chosen to be shared with
you guys in Malacca are Garden of Thousand Flowers and Melaka Botanical Garden. In this entry, you may see the beautiful and peaceful
scenery which can make you feel calm and peace.
Garden of Thousand Flowers

The entrance of Garden of Thousand Flowers |
It is located at Jalan Gapam which is next to Seri Bendahara
building and it is currently under the management of Perbadanan Hang Tuah Jaya.
This beautiful garden is officiated by the former Prime Minister of Malaysia,
Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi on 30 June 2007.
5.3 hectares of beautifully landscaped gardens complete with
walking tracks, fountains and romantic pergolas. Here, visitors can exercise by
walking along the walking tracks. Besides that, Garden of Thousand Flowers is a
perfect spot for quite stroll and is suitable for the family recreation
activities and also for those who are interested in landscape and nursery. They
can get a creative idea in creating the landscape. In this garden also, it have
been provided with many facilities which are ‘surau’, toilet, café, various
benches and rest area. So, for the Muslims, they do not have to worry in
performing the prayers because ‘surau’ is already provided.
Garden of Thousand Flowers is open daily starting from early
in the morning that is from 6.45 a.m. until 6.45 p.m. It was closed at night
because it is undergoing refurbishment and is expected to be operational at
night once the lighting is fixed. The best thing is, visitors do not have to
pay for the fees.
So, don’t miss the chances to get the peaceful scenery at the
Garden of Thousand Flowers or else you will regret for it.

Ok, now let’s proceed with the next garden that I have
chosen.
Melaka Botanical Garden

The Melaka Botanical Garden or formerly known as the Hutan
Rekreasi Ayer Keroh was established from an idea mooted by the Chief Minister
of Melaka, YAB Datuk Seri Hj Mohd Ali bin Mohd Rustam on 1 June 2006. This
garden is encircled by a forest that contains over 300 species of unique flora and
fauna. The cute thing about this park is the collection of giant stone carvings
of prehistoric animals that were scattered all around the park.

Now it’s time for BUGGY SUNDAY !!!
If you don’t have any idea what should you do to entertain
your kids rather than just walking, you can buggy riding with them at Botanical
Garden Buggy Ride. The best and suitable time for buggy riding is early in the
morning when the air is from the recreational forest is fresh and the sun is
not too hot. There are plenty of buggy that you can choose. It have two buggy
seat and the other has only 1 buggy seat.

Buggy riding |
Apart from that, there are also providing the 4 seat buggy
but it is not dramatic because it is not suitable if you want to play with your
kids, for example, if you want to race with them. The suitable buggy to race is
the 2 buggy seats as it can race to the end and I’m guaranteed that your kids
will love it. This vehicle is easy to be conducted because you don’t need to
use your feet and even with one hand you can still drive it. Buggy is safe
because it is slow and just for 30 minutes only. The fee for the single seat
buggy is only RM10 meanwhile for the double buggy it is RM18. Worth isn’t?
So, don’t forget to buggy riding if you visit the Melaka
Botanical Garden.
