Taman Tugu

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Taman Tugu is a 66-acre green public park and conservation site with over 5 kilometres of trails in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. The hills where both parks are located separate Malaysia's Parliament building and Perdana Botanical Gardens from the downtown area around Dataran Merdeka. Taman Tugu is the property of Malaysia's sovereign wealth fund, Khazanah Nasional. It was once the residential area for British colonial officers, and later, Malaysian government officers. By partnering with the Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM), over a thousand trees in Taman Tugu have been marked for preservation. More trees, including indigenous species, are being planted on-site within nurseries to eventually be moved into the main forest area.
