Taman Esplanade is a 1 kilometer long paved walkway and public space along Kuantan River at Jalan Besar near Kuantan Municipal Headquarters building in Kuantan. People come here for a walk along the river while enjoying the gentle breeze of the sea.
Lined with palm-trees, Taman Esplanade stretches from Shahbandar Jetty to Mega View Hotel. The walkway is well-lit with lamp-posts and many people come here for jogging and exercising.
