Taman Tasik Embayu is a planned recreational lake park situated within the Proton City township in Tanjong Malim, Perak. The landscape features a large man-made lake serving as the central aesthetic and environmental feature for the local residential area. The park provides paved walking and jogging paths that circumnavigate the perimeter of the water body. It serves primarily as a community-focused green space for residents of the surrounding Proton City housing developments and students from the nearby Sultan Idris Education University (UPSI). The area is characterized by its open terrain with limited mature tree canopy, typical of relatively modern suburban developments in the region. Visitors frequently use the space for evening exercise, family outings, and social gatherings.
