Location : Zone E

View towards Botanic Island One
 Provinsi Rattan is a plain area that is situated within  two zones viz Zone E and Zone I.  At the center of the provinsi is the Botanic Island Two and Botanic Island Three which preserves many rattan species.  Rattan are climbing palms much used in local handicraft and furniture making.  From the pictures above and at the inset, it is clear that the oil palm trees have ornamental value.  But at the park, oil palm trees are considered for its commercial value because revenue from selling the FFB (fresh  fruit bunches) are plough back to maintain the park operation  and its eco-citizens, especially its wildlife and bio-diversity.
