Make you who love hiking was fun, there is a place near the Kuala Lumpur, his name FRIM (Forest Research Institute Malaysia), located in Kepong, about 16 km from Kuala Lumpur. Was founded by British colony since 1929, FRIM is 600 hectares of forest laboratory which is also a place to conduct research on tropical forests in Malaysia.
Aside from being a laboratory of scholars, FRIM is also a means of recreation and education. This forest represents the areas yangg popular for local people to hold picnics, jogging, cycling, jungle tracks, bird watching and even wedding photography. Try in Jakarta is not you think this kind of forest that is located just 16 km from downtown?
During a visit there I took myself to see that even a small waterfall but rather was for my children play there. These waterfalls have been the subject of water to the river that divides the flow of tropical forests in FRIM. The river does not so big and also not very clean, but there aja people and small children playing and bathing in the river tersebut.Tidak far from the waterfall area there is an area called 'Kampong Java'. There I saw a row of houses on stilts and some ordinary houses. I do not know what they meant to give the name 'Kampong Java', or indeed the people of Java used to live there?
One of the destinations that are sold here is actually the way to the Canopy Walk. Canopy Walk is a man-made road bridge built in trees, where you will be able to take a walk on the tree at a height of 30 meters. The length of its own Canopy Walk about 50 meters. Unfortunately when he got there the two sons of my fears, so I did not even had time to enjoy the experience of walking over to the Canopy Walk pohon.Untuk you must buy tickets in advance. RM 5 for adult tickets, student (aged 13 years and over) RM 3 and for children (7 to 12 years) cost RM 1. Canopy Walk is open daily from 9:30 till 14:30, but closed Mondays and Fridays. You also should wear hiking shoes and clothes for the trip quite far, about 1.4 km in total. During the first 900 meters, the road that we must go up enough, fit for a car is roughly, but travel about 500 yards further small road, just trails and hiking terus.Satu again the important thing is do not forget to bring mosquito repellent lotion, umbrella (if longer rainy season) and water, because along the way to the Canopy Walk, there is no such thing tuh drink vending. Journey to the Canopy Walk will take about 30-45 minutes one way. Total general travel back and forth probably about 2 hours. Do not bring grandparents or your in-laws, can-can gempor them later, but his physical strength. Visit to FRIM is suitable for those of you who like berpetualangan in outdoor, strong walk and loves nature beautiful forest.
