After the visiting the Buddhist Temple, we went to have dinner at Ipoh town. We heard that the Beans Sprout Steam Chicken Rice was famous there and have to give it a try. It was a corner shop, the deliver the food quite fast. We ordered Bean Sprouts, Steam Chicken, Pork Balls Soup and Kuey Teow Soup. Both our chinese mates had problems using the Chopsticks, the Indian (Myself) and Robin (From UK) managed to show off our skills at the utensils. The food wasn’t as expected. The bean sprouts wasn’t tasty at all. Pork balls soup was good, steam chicken was ok ok only.

After dinner we headed to Taiping. We wanted to experience the Night Safari. Upon reaching there, there was an entry fees of RM16 per person. We had some struggle looking for the Zoo as there weren’t proper signs to the location, and some of them were quite confusing. We were told that the zoo was 2.5kms in total. First round we took the tramps, the driver was explaining as we passed each caged animals. Most of the animals were already exhausted, no not much movements were visible. Some were already asleep and the rest was busy eating. Only the Owls were quite active.

The ride took about 20 minutes. We were dropped at the main again to start out walk around the Taiping Zoo. Unfortunately, both our camera’s ran out of battery due to the whole day trips and hundreds of photographs that we took. Managed to take a few photos as below. Some of us was already very exhausted due to the fully packed roadtrip and we only managed to Buy Cialis walk around one section of the Taiping Night Safari.
