This is the only place in the whole of Malaysia where you get Mozzarella Cheese freshly made from buffalo milk. You don’t have to go all the way to Italy for that any longer.

The Buffalo Park was opened in 2006 when several farmers agreed to contribute their farmlands (paddy fields) to create this dairy farm in natural surroundings of mountains and rainforests. Since then, it has grown in stature and now some 100 water buffaloes (which are the premier milking) are kept here for making organic fertilizers and milk products.

However, note that these activities have specific timings, and you need to be present during such time to take part in it. The farm also offers rides (RM20), pulled cart rides (RM35), anok rides (RM25) etc. There is a cafe at the entrance of the dairy farm. It’s open from the sides and offers a nice friendly and casual ambience. You can plan to take your lunch here.

Found them a little sweet and melting quickly, but quite nice though. There are at least five to six flavors at any time. Mango lassi was really great and refreshing.
