Kuantan, Final Day

On February 21, 2010 by Niza Zainal

Our third and final day in Kuantan. After bidding farewell to my relatives that has been our generous host for these wonderful three days, we made our move back to KL. Before that, we have a stop at Kuantan town for the last look. Above is the Teruntum Complex, the first modern shopping complex of Kuantan and the tallest in the east coast.

The Sultan Ahmad Shah State Mosque

 

The Shahbandar Jetty. For a price of RM15/adult and RM8/child, you could hop on the boat for an adventerous river cruise. Night cruises are available only on Fridays and Saturdays evening. The jetty is reachable via the Esplanade Park.

It is so easy to fall asleep here as the place is shady, breezy and cozy...

After waving goodbye to this good town, it is time to hit the road again. Hmmm.. which way to go?

 

Somewhere in Maran the road runs through these two stone walls. I bet it would make a very nice landscape shot when taken during the 'golden hours' as the sun rays reflected on each of its crevices and jagged faces, resulting to different hues and shades.

 

After two and half an hours driving, we finally saw this familiar landmark. Praise to god, we reached home safe and sound. The End.
