First Stop - Taiping Railway station

Hello Guys, So Here' my journey begins and my first station is Taiping Railway station, which is also Malaysia's first railway station, opened in 1885 and I think this is the best way to start my journey and on top of all of this it is my wedding anniversary (bahut hi Shub mahurut hai 😁) As I planned that I will visit each and every station by Train but in this case it didn't worked out because  my wife and son was with me and they doesnt like train journey and then with no choice had go via road. 

Chalo ab baat karte hai travel ki jis kaam ke liye aye hai.... 

 

We set off early in the morning as planned and arrived in Taiping in 4.5 hours with two stops/breaks; otherwise, I would have there in 3 hours. One thing I'd like to point out is that Malaysian roads are fantastic, with a smooth and painless toll system that does not make you tiring.

We began touring Taping after arriving at our destination and discovered that it is a tiny city with many beautiful gardens, mountains, and lakes. I believe the entire Taiping is within a 5-kilometer radius, and all tourist attractions are within a 10-minute drive, so it was enjoyable.

The next day, February 5th, the Day of the World by Train began with a little nervousness and excitement. I am getting the following ideas concerning people's thoughts.

• Yeh loo ek aur timepass karne wala aagya. 
• Lagata iske paas bahut free time hai
• Bahut shining maar raha hai
• Kitne aye aur kitne gaye iske jaise
• Apne aap ko bahut bada bloogger ya Kimi Werner & Shivya Nath (Do google to know about these celebrity 😃)

I guess I am being theatrical & dramatic because I have seen a lot of Ekta Kapoor serials. And you can blame to my mom for this. She has shown me lot emotional serials. Now my international fans must be scratching their heads, wondering who Ekta Kapoor is - I would suggest again do Google

After arriving at my goal - the Taping Station - I noticed that the station is very nice and clean, and it is not in the least bit familiar of Malaysia's first station, which was built in 1885. I had the impression that I was in a king's palace. The structure and architecture were classic, which I liked, and then I began praising the Malaysian government and people while blaming our Indian citizens for failing to care for our property. With the same feeling, I began looking about and conversing with those who worked at the station in order to learn more about the history or facts. Then came the biggest shock: this isn't the first station; Its is a new station which  right next to old/first station. Both stations are walkable from one another. Then I started cribbing on both the governments.😜

However, because both stations are next to each other, I was able to compare them, which was a fun experience. They converted the old station into a gallery, kind of a museum. I have included photos of both stations so you can see the difference. Actually, I crossed the old station on my way to the new station for taping, but I didn't stop because it look like a food street with lots of eatery shops. So, if you are going to taping a railway station, make sure you stop by the old station and eat something as well.
