A trip to Sg. Lembing, Kuantan (Oct 2009) part 2

We actually stayed there for 1 night and the next morning at 5am we get ready to ascend up the Panorama Hill. Reached the hill around 5:10am and there is already a lot of people there who come all the way just to go up the hill. We started to ascend and reach the peak around 6:10am. Along the way up there are steps and dirt road but if you ask me I would rather prefer the dirt road as it is not so tiring to walk on dirt road compare to walking up the staircase. But the view is really worth it.

By around 7am we starts to descend down & once again as I said earlier, the view is also very nice with all the 云海 it really makes you feel like you are somewhere between the clouds. I guess this is what we all meant by being on cloud 9, hahaha. And of course going down is definitely faster and easier than going up time :p

After that we went to the market for their famous Sg. Lembing tofu where it was sold by 1 lady at the stall. And I must say, it really earns its name as it is very very tasty and smooth. There after we continue to a small waterfall near our guest house before we head back to KL. This is not the Rainbow Waterfall but still the area is quite nice and the water is very very cooling. We really had a good time in Sg. Lembing. For those who like hiking & nature, this is recommended.



oh... before I forget one last very interesting & important thing. In this small town they do have petrol station but you will be surprise at the look of it.
This is the one & only petrol station. Yup if you don't pay attention, you will pass it as a bus stop or something like that. And take a closer look at the following pictures, the pump is actually being locked with a pad lock and it only open for few hours a day so take a good look at the last picture where the timing is all written on it. Oh & remember this, they do not operate on Sunday & Public Holiday. So my advise is go & fill up your car before you enter into the Kuantan Toll Gate.
