Cultural Village Taiping

Cultural Village Taiping MA22 Agro Park, is a new tourist attraction spot at Kamunting. It is almost 60 mins away from Butterworth by North South Highway. The cultural village park has scenic views of the Bamboo Forest Garden. Cultural space constitutes the physical, cultural and perceptual attributes of a place that creates social phenomenon and place meaning. Nevertheless, cultural spaces in Malaysia's historic town were facing alteration which resulted to place declining and placelessness. Thus, this paper discusses the roles of cultural spaces that characterised the historic town's identity of Kuala Dungun and Taiping. A case study method was conducted involving site observation and questionnaire survey to collect residents’ cultural experiences. Results indicated that cultural spaces generated from routine activity, sociocultural and economic vitality contributed to identity of the historic towns. #historicculture#museumquest#culturalattractions
