With ample benches for you to relax, this is definitely an Instagram worthy spot.
The Secret Rooftop Garden opens on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and on public holidays from 10 am to 10 pm.

Here’s a fun date idea! Bring your partner on a date to Farm In The City in Seri Kembangan, Selangor where you can play with cute and furry animals! Unlike other zoos in Malaysia, the setting of this petting zoo resembles the typical Malaysian village or kampung and visitors can not only pet the animals but also get an insight into the traditional lifestyle of fellow Malaysians. Your date won’t be the only one you find cute here!
So, what are you waiting for, plan your dates and surprise your loved ones this Valentine weekend!
