Taman Negara National Park

"It's a sprawling natural heartland, extending some 4,343 sq km over three different states, and evolving for a mind-boggling 130 million years, to make it one of the world's most ancient rainforests. Dense tropical lowlands overlooked by mountainous peaks accommodate a veritable cornucopia of strange and spectacular inhabitants." —Zoe McIntyre, travel writer Known for being one of the world's oldest rainforests, the Taman Negara (formerly King George V National Park) was officially founded in 1929. The sprawling 1300 square kilometers of land has "remained undisturbed for 130 million years," teeming with endemic plant and animal life.
