Early morning woke up at 530am.
Slept 5.5 hours.
We were going to Wang Kelian. The border between Perlis and Thailand.
There is a market there. To reach that market we need to climb over a hill.
I wondered if my Atoz could make it.
Climbing over the hill. Turning into sharp corners. Enjoyed the scenary. The fogs were below us. I amazed how my atoz made it throught.. =) Happily driving, and turning the corners...
We reached at market about 9pm.
After few hours walked around we went to Kaki Bukit Gua Kelam.
Entrance to Gua Kelam is a small stream for visitors to play water have fun.
Walked throught the cave...not a big cave a small one..
I actually like the cave lighting. But nothing much to see. (Promote Mulu Caves!!!!)
At the end of the cave is another little park for relax, camp and picnic.
The park outside before the entrance
Inside Gua Kelam. When we were on the way out from the cave, we actually walked in the dark due to no electricity supplied. TENAGA apa macam????
The park at the end of Cave. The area shud be very big. But hot weather...we didnt lingered long at the area. After lunch. we traveled to near by sugar cane plantation, Chuping.
Our country biggest sugar cane plantation.
Unfortunately we were not able to visit the factory.
Then we moved on, driving back to Kedah.
We visited the Padi Museum.
The padi museum entrance fee is RM3. By bringing in the camera u have to pay additinal RM2.
There are 3 layers in padi museum.
The entrance (middle layer) is decorated with Murals. All are very nice and attractive.
The top layer has a rotating plateform. For you to oversee a mural illustrating the life of farmers and community that living surrounding the area. At the first glance I thought it is real scenary.
Ground floor is actually a very educational center where it is the information hub for all padi related information.
The padi museum elegantly stood in the middle of padi fields...After the padi museum we moved on to the near by Gunung Keriang where this mountain was once famous with the grow of crystal.
Now we still can see a lot of pigeon holes on cliff. If we went near by..we can still heard the sound of "ting ting tuk tuk" pple are digging for crystal. Now government has retrict only lincensed pple can mine in the mountain. I heard also each hole has it own owner. If lucky you also able to pick up some crystal on the ground. So while visiting here please look closely to the ground. But watchup too on top there might have stone/rocks falling due to the mining.
