Perdana Botanical Garden Walks: Nature, Wildlife & More

Perdana Botanical Garden is more than just a scenic escape in the heart of Kuala Lumpur—it’s also a gateway to understanding Malaysia’s rich biodiversity. Thanks to the newly established Forest Learning Centre, visitors now have the opportunity to explore nature through guided walks designed to make forest learning fun and accessible. From pollinators to wetlands and even nighttime adventures, we find out more about these thematic walks from guide Siti Syuhada Sapno, who is also the Programme Coordinator at the Forest Learning Centre. We discuss why urban biodiversity matters, and how reconnecting with nature benefits both people, and the planet.
