Penang to Gopeng Day 2 Part 2 Agrotech Farm Visit and Lunch kids love the petting zoo, amazing food!

In Part 2 of our Day 2 adventure in Gopeng, Perak, we headed to Agrotech Farm at Kampung Pintu Padang! The farm and petting zoo, perched on a hill, offered scenic views of rustic kampung houses and streams from the nearby whitewater rivers. We arrived around 11am, greeted by ducks and geese happily swimming in a large fish pond stocked with tilapia, patin, and other freshwater fish – a thrilling sight for the kids! With our lunch reservation set for 12:30pm, we explored the grounds, meeting many interesting animals and birds along the way. The kids had a blast feeding the friendly parakeets and were fascinated by unique sights like the “rooster with bell bottoms,” along with camels, meerkats, and a porcupine. There were a lot of fruits and vegetables planted at the farm, some utilizing aquaponic methods, and also we saw a lot of Kyoho grapes which are delicious black grapes from Japan. To pass the time, there were foosball and table tennis tables available, making for a fun wait before our meal. Lunch was served at nearly 1pm, and we were thankful for the reservation as the dining hall was packed. The meal was fantastic – a spread of organic farm-fresh ingredients, including kampung chicken and delicious ikan patin, with the standout being the roasted free-range chicken. Leaving was tough, but we’re already looking forward to our next visit! If you’re in Gopeng, Agrotech Farm is a must-visit! Be sure to watch for more Gopeng adventures!
