  • Taman Negara is in Peninsular Malaysia. It was established in 1938/1939 as the King George V National Park after Theodore Hubback lobbied the sultans of Pahang, Terengganu and Kelantan to set aside a piece of land that covers the three states for the creation of a protected area. It was renamed Taman Negara after independence, which means “national park” in Malay. Taman Negara has a total area of 4,343 km2 and it is one of the world’s oldest deciduous rainforest, estimated to be more than 130 million years old.
