After a afternoon tea gathering with some ladies, we took a 18 mins leisurely drive to Wonder Farm Mushroom. It was drizzling when we arrived, the owner Mr Tan’s son named Khang led us into the waiting room. This room is set up with all types of packed mushrooms on display shelves for sale complete with a seating area where Khang gave briefing on the history of Wonderfarm Mushroom. Next he took us on a detailed tour through the factory explaining various components & process in this Plant and environment required for the growth of mushroom followed by the green house to show several type of mushrooms which are cultivated in the farm. This include the Oyster mushroom, Grey Oyster mushroom, Reishi Mushroom (commonly known as Ling Zhi) and TigerMilk Mushroom. Mr Tan and Khang patiently explains and answers all queries pertaining to the growth of every mushroom inside the Greenhouse. As we finished the tour, we were treated to a glass of thirst quenching home made “fungus" drink with detailed description and recipe to make this drink by Khang. Thereafter, we proceeded to choose and purchase our preferred mushrooms on display in the shop. Indeed it was a fun experience & very educational and time well spent at Wonder Farm Sdn Bhd !!

3. Taiping War Cemetery
Overall Ratings

Taiping War Cemetery was created by the Army after the defeat of Japan for the reception of graves brought from the battlefields, from numerous temporary burial grounds, and from village and other civil cemeteries where permanent maintenance would not be possible. There are separate entrances to the two parts, the plots of Christian graves lying on the south-eastern side of the road and the Muslim and Gurkha graves on the opposite side. In the Muslim and Gurkha section the Stone of Remembrance stands in front of a high bank which forms the north-western boundary. The two small shelters in the cemetery have been constructed of local stone, and a low stone wall flanks the road on each side.

A local restaurant owner suggested strongly that we seem out the war cemetery. We are glad we did. It is a simple and moving tribute to the fallen from the Malayan, Indian and British/Australian forces who served in WW2.

A great place to stay inside in a hot afternoon. The entry fee is RM5.00. There are a lot of interesting exhibits. Worth spending an afternoon there. But sometimes there are a lot of kids running around from the school visit.

This small old workshop for coffee Browing is nice and interesting. The only spot I enjoyed to visit is this boring city. But the coffee is local though low quality. I didn't buy some. Just bought some biscuits haha

Well worth the effort. The views are amazing. You can walk from town via the Lake Garden and war cemetery. Don't go if you can't see the sumit from town ! Take plenty of water / drinks and some energy food. Cafe about 3/4 of the way up. It's at least 5 hours of walking... Probably 6 or 7 . It's cooler at the top

One of my favourite drink to order at hawker stalls is a glass of cold of limau asam boi or kat chai suen mui. It’s the best thirst quencher on a hot day. Not only it is refreshing, it contains lime juice which is rich in vitamin C. The drink is flavoured with sour and salty dried plum and sweetened with sugar or honey .
