Taman Ikan Air Tawar, Kuala Selangor (7 July, 2016)
Taman Ikan Air Tawar (GPS: 3.33883, 101.24505) is a public park showcasing the various local fish of Selangor. It is located in Kuala Selangor, next to Taman Alam Kuala Selangor.
Visitors to Taman Ikan Air Tawar Kuala Selangor gets an education of the various types of local fish, many of which are found at nearby Sungai Selangor. At the same time, they get to view the various traditional fish traps used by the local fishermen.
There is an aquarium with a number of freshwater fish. Personally I felt the area is a bit "non happening". It can do with some sprucing up and more variety of fish. There is a Sampan mural where my wife and I had our photos taken. I left the tripod in the car, so we had to take turns taking each other's photos.

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
