I was Taiping native. Immigrated to US decades ago. Graduated from TMGS.
Plan to visit Taiping next year 2023. Hope by then could travel & Covid does not get in the way! Being all over.. . My most memorable travel was to Russia with my family. We visited the Kremlin, St. Petersburg , Palace of Peter the Great, etc. Now a senior. Returning to Taiping & going down memory lane. As still able to walk. NB.

Beautiful rattan shop. Intention to pop in next year. How do I go about to book a jeep ride up Bukit Larut?
Also 2 nights stay in Bukit Larut. Phone number to book 2 rooms. No relatives in T. now. (Visiting the town next year feels more like a outsider! . Loss touch with friends over the years! )
Someone also from Taiping but now resides in the Southern Hemisphere told me could get Uber . Another friend from Penang told me get Grab . Equivalent to Uber! Driving is more a reflux action. Not use to driving on left side of the road. As over 50 plus years has being driving on the right side of the road.

hi and welcome to Taiping Talk! I must apologise for the very late response but I was away for some time on a couple of birding excursions in places where there is not internet.Just got back and read your posts! A couple of years ago there were some pretty bad landslides up Bukit Larut and they were having a tough time repairing the roads. I wonder whether they are passable now, even to jeeps. Let me check and get back to you.The local taxis in Taiping charge very cheap prices and you can find plenty of them at the Casual Market. From your IP address I can see you are in Texas. I watch KSAT News almost everyday to keep up with US news and the truckload of people who died in a container is very sad news. So is UVALDE.
