Taman Pertanian |
 |  |  |
Taman Pertanian Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah is located at the Kuantan-Kuala Terengganu Bypass, and is about 3 kilometers from Kuantan town center.
In this park, you can find many varieties of local plants, flowers and trees which are found in Pahang and Malaysia.
With the plants and trees tagged with their usual name as well as their scientific name, it makes for an enjoyable stroll while being educated on plants and trees.
Besides browsing and identifying them, you can also buy flowers and potted plants to take back and beautify your home.

AN IDEAL PLACE FOR RECREATION
 |
Taman Pertanian Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah is not just a park or garden filled with all kinds of tropical plants and trees but is also a nice place for recreational activities.
Take a walk round the park, and if you have children, bring them along for an educational tour. And relax your mind in the surroundings of green trees and foliage.

During week-ends and school holidays, the place can get fully booked. Recreational activities involving schoolchildren include camping at the camping grounds and facility available there.
With function and seminar rooms, it is an ideal location for motivation seminars and school holiday camps, within an oxygen-filled tropical forest environment.
Taman Pertanian Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah in Kuantan is really an appropriate and suitable place for schoolchildren and adults to learn, identify and recognise various species of jungle and tropical fruit trees that are found extensively in the forests of Pahang and Malaysia.
VARIETY OF TROPICAL PLANTS AND TREES
 |
I also saw many types and varieties of local fruit trees there. A tree seldom seen and one I won’t recognize if I saw one without the tag, is the durian belanda or soursop tree.
When you go round the park, you can see durian, mangosteen, rambutan, langsat, guava and other local fruit trees.

And for some of you who don’t know how the famous or popular local aphrodisiac plants like "tongkat ali" and the "kacip fatimah" look like, well, there’s also a special, small plot where these local herbal and other medicinal plants are grown.
Well, take a visit to Taman Pertanian Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah, and educate yourself on the flora of Pahang and Malaysia whenever you’re in Kuantan.
As one of the recreational parks in Kuantan it’s a great place to learn about the tropical forests, fruit trees and plants of the country.
