The merging of two rivers – Sungai Timah and Sungai Tasoh – bestow upon this man-made lake in Perlis its singsongy alliterative name.

Calm and serene, Lake Timah-Tasoh is a popular spot among locals and tourists in the northernmost state of Malaysia. Many flock here in the early morning and late evenings to enjoy the picturesque views of the waters.
