Taman Metropolitan Kepong is in a bad state...

"We never know the worth of water till the well is dry..."

(Slimy green-tinted oil-like substance floating on the lake)

Taman Metropolitan Kepong in Kuala Lumpur offers a variety of recreational activities for visitors of all ages. The park is also known as "Taman Layang-Layang" and is a favorite spot for kite enthusiasts. There are plenty of rest areas and picnic spots where you can relax and enjoy a meal with family or friends. The park features a few viewpoint towers that offers panoramic views of the surrounding greenery. There's an excellent jogging/walking track and a cycling lane that goes around the large lake in the park. It's a popular spot for recreational activities, providing a scenic route with beautiful views.

But recently the lake is not as clean as it used to be. In recent months, visitors have noticed problems like dead fish, a green-tinted oil-like substance, and a pungent stench from the stagnant water. There have been efforts by the authorities to clean up the pollution in the lake. 

Hopefully, the pollution issues could be resolve soonest. If not we need to look for other parks for our weekly brisk walks.
