Suitable for jogging and walking. A cosy comfortable area.

Nice place to sweat out under shady trees.

It's entertainment

During my stay in Butterworth, I felt the urge for a refreshing morning stroll, prompting me to turn to Google for options. That's when I discovered the Taman Tunku Recreational Park. Situated in the Prai area, around 4-5km from my Butterworth hotel, the park was a convenient 15-minute drive away, thanks to the smooth traffic flow that day. The park offers two entrances: one near the mosque, where parking is roadside due to the lack of dedicated parking space, and the other near a housing area, equipped with a designated parking area and well-maintained public washrooms. With two clean cubicles and absence of urinals, the washroom facilities were decent. The park's allure lies in its abundant foliage, shaded by numerous towering trees. However, the overall care for the greenery seemed lacking, as the plants appeared somewhat neglected. Despite its natural charm, the park had a couple of drawbacks. The rivers within the park were disappointing, characterized by dirty water, debris, and an off-putting grey-brown hue. Even so, I noticed a handful of individuals attempting to fish in these less-than-ideal waters, comprising both locals and foreign workers. The park's wooden bridge requires immediate attention, displaying damage in parts and uneven spacing between wooden boards, which could pose a safety hazard for visitors. A playground for children is present but showed signs of neglect, warranting a revitalization to ensure child safety. Notably, the park's visitors primarily comprised elderly individuals. With that said, it's evident that Taman Tunku Recreational Park needs significant restoration and improvements. As the jurisdiction of Majlis Bandaraya Seberang Perai (Seberang Perai City Council), I hope the park receives the attention it deserves for an improved experience for both locals and visitors alike.

Much to my surprise, this park has started to be a home for the homeless. Suitcase, tent & debris are found in the gazebo in the park.For the safety of our family members who frequently visit the park, can MBSP pls look into this matter urgently...tqsm🙏🏻

Really an excellent place for individual and family activities 👌🏼

Sadly ... public restroom still in-operable !! Please broaden more the track for joggers & cyclist. Must ensure regular maintenance & prioritize safety for visitors.

Just a normal park for exercise, relaxing, cycling or fishing.
