KL Eco Park Walk

In the midst of busy KL, there is a small nature park at Bukit Nanas.

It is popular wth locals and tourists.


I walked from Westin to the entrance to KL Eco Park. It is a 25 mins walk. It is pleasant morning walk. I was fortunate there are some clouds to shield me from the morning walk.
The entrance to the park is on the left of the picture. The building has an exhibition about the native species of the ecosystem.

I walked inside the building. It is pretty empty and the aircon is weak. There are photos of various trees and plants in the park.

I walked outside the building. I was trying to find the entrance to the park. I thought the entrance to the park is behind the building. I manage to discover the entrance. I wish the signs are clearer.
