Lake Gardens in Taiping

There has been a prolonged drought in Taiping resulting in some parts of the lakes drying up. Quite an irony for the wettest town in Malaysia. But the rainy season is coming and hopefully the lakes will be filled to its normal levels. Cloudy skies at this time does not help in the photos taken. The old raintrees remain an awesome sight, straining towards the lake as if to take a sip of water. The boathouse is still an eyesore marring the natural beauty of the lakes. And nearer to the playground, the tennis courts seems like an ugly appendage to otherwise a pristine and lovely lake environment.
