Taman Kota 1 BSD is a lively and welcoming green space that feels more vibrant compared to Taman Kota 2. With its larger area, the park attracts more visitors and creates a friendly, bustling atmosphere. It’s a great place for families, friends, and individuals who want to enjoy fresh air and outdoor activities.

In contrast, Taman Kota 1 does not have that luxury. Worse, there are many street food stalls inside Taman Kota 1, which make landscape in Taman Kota even worse. But again, even though there are many shortcomings, Taman Kota 1 remains the best option for jogging and burn your calories, safely. The newly built Taman Kota 2 BSD, although it is bigger than Taman Kota 1, but from convenience point of view, Taman Kota 2 is behind...
