Senarai Kawasan Pelancongan Menarik Di Perak, Malaysia
List of interesting places in Perak, Malaysia
Perak, one of the 13 states of Malaysia, is the second largest state in Peninsular Malaysia. It borders Kedah and the Thai Yala Province to the north Penang to the northwest Kelantan and Pahang to the east Selangor to the south, and the Straits of Malacca to the west. Perak also is the second most developed state in Malaysia, behind Selangor.

Together with Taman Negara National Park it is one of the oldest rainforest in world, dating back over 130 million years.Belum is a state park and not an officialNational Park. This means that local government is allowed to use the area for production forest and it is open for future development. There are efforts to get the government to gazette Belum as a national park, though up till now only a part of the huge forest is conserved and protected as state park.
