2020 was a year no one expected it to be, and it has derailed us from our new year’s resolutions and not to mention the use of our planners! While we may not know what this year may bring, we now know better than to have high hopes and to take it easy. Let us step into 2021 with a peace of mind, and what better way to achieve that than visiting a bed of sunflowers?

Set a time to visit Sunflower Garden in Bagan Sungai Burung, Bagan Datuk, Perak. A quaint and historical town of Perak, Bagan Datuk is now home to more than 2,000 sunflowers across a 0.8-hectare farm! Apart from the picturesque radiant flowers, the farm is also home to many ducks and fishes, and visitors are allowed to feed them!

To ensure maximum photographic experience for the visitors, farm owners Khor Weng Kiang, alongside his elder sister and five friends have provided several spots for that perfect shot. From a large heart-shaped arc to swing chairs and sky ladders, Sunflower Garden is a perfect place for a fun (or a special) photoshoot.
