Lake Gardens

Malaysia


Two thin lakes in a pleasantly wooded park are the centrepiece of the old colonial neighbourhood of Seremban. Pincered between two main roads, they aren't very tranquil, but nonetheless, paved walking paths and trim lawns make these gardens a refreshing place to ramble in the shade of palm trees (and they are popular with courting local couples).
