Finally, there is a mall name Keningau Mall in Keningau.
Although it is not as big as the mall in Kota Kinabalu, I still enjoy shopping in it.

This Guang Ji Si Temple is situated on a high hill in Keningau.
On this hill we can view the Keningau scene.
This was the first time I went there.

How can we get there?

Turn left at the last traffic light to Tenom.
Go straight.... If you see the signboards as below, you are in the right track.

Then, you will see this metal bridge. Go across it.

You will see the following signboard at your left.

Turn left then go straight untill you see the next signboard as below.














Go straight you will reach at the temple.

 

 

then

Kunang-kunang river cruise is situated near to Beaufort town and about two hours drive from Kota Kinabalu city. Klias Wetland is the biggest peat swamp forest of Sabah. As Klias is the habitat of wildlife such as proboscis (long-nosed) monkey, silver-leaf monkey and firefly.

This Deluxe Kunang-kunang River Cruise is only offer by Oib tourism which mean "Only in Borneo". It is a 80 feet wooden fishing boat. This boat has a capacity of 40 people, Where our group were only nine people make us feel very comfortable.

Oib has its own base camp. So, we just need a short distance walk to reach the Kunang-kunang River Cruise. There are many toilets at their base camp. The toilets are very clean with hand sanitizers and toilet paper inside.

Upon, arriving on the boat, we were served with sweet fried potatoes, fried banana and tea/coffee. We were very lucky to see three proboscis monkey on top of the tree even though the boat not yet start its engine. The proboscis monkeys were pretty shy. When they saw us keep on pointing towards them, they will turn around to hide their face, some will avoid us to see them.

We also managed to see the silver leaf monkey. These silver leaf monkeys were very active, they don't feel any different when our boat tried to approached near to them. They will continued what ever activities they are doing, like eating leaves or swinging.

 After finished discover those proboscis monkey, our board stop at the river bank for us to fishing. There were two tourists managed to catch a cat-fish. For me, I was unlucky. But, I enjoy fishing there.

Beautiful sunset taken on the upper deck.

We serve on board with lamp chop, fried chicken, fried rice, salad, vegetables, fruits and drink for dinner.

After enjoying our dinner, the boat captain will switch off the lights on boat. We saw many firefly  flying around the tree. It was really like a Christmas tree.

This Kunang-kunang River Cruise trip cost us RM168 per pax. We were told that if you drive on your own to the base camp you will only be charge RM100 per pax. But, I won't recommend you to drive there because there was no parking unless you park at the road side only.

Sam Poh Tong
I always wish to visit Sam Poh Tong in Ipoh. Finally, my husband bring me there during these school holiday.
But, the Sam Poh Tong close at 4.00p.m. We did not get the chance to climb up the temple.

My husband and I had chosen the TOUR 2 as we did not bring along helmet, torch, shoes, extra shirt and pants.

We did not managed to take more photo inside the Gua Tempurung as our camera was not so good to capture photo in dim light.

Overeall, it was a nice trip to discover the famous limestone cave - Gua Tempurung in Malaysia.

Kellie's Castle  is located near Batu Gajah, and is about 20 minutes' drive from Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia. The unfinished, ruined mansion, was built by a Scottish planter named William Kellie Smith. According to differing accounts, it was either a gift for his wife or a home for his son.

The entrance fee for Malaysian is RM 4.00 per adult.

Kellies Castle has many hidden rooms and a secret tunnel.

This is the top of the building. As the castle was not fully built, there were no fence on top of the building. I was told that this place was planned to have roof party place if it was well finished. There was also a helicopter landing place.

If you look carefully at the tree trunk, you can fing a bear face there.

This Hindu temple was not far from the Kellies Castle. It was built by Smith too..you can find that his statue also on top of the roof. He was prayed as god to the hindu too..means he was well respected to them.

There are many exciting views and stories about this castle.Just pay it a visit. You won't regret.

My husband and I have decided to go to have a look at the Gua Tambun, Perak. But, we don't know how to go to Gua Tambun. So, we search the internet. But, there was no map or instruction to lead us to Gua Tambun. Lastly, we found a blog saying that the Gua Tambun is just behind the Tambun Caltex Petrol Station. Then, we used our GPS to find this petrol station. There we found the petrol station. But, where is the entrance for the Gua Tambun?

We drove into a junction after the petrol station. We saw this signboard below. It is actually "PANORAMA TAMBUN PERDANA". I didn't managed to capture the signboard properly :P

Then, we were in a housing area where we found lots of Indian people staying there. We decided to ask the one of them. The old Indian guy told us that the Gua Tambun is just 500m from this housing area. But, car can't go through. MUST WALK.  If you see the road sign  "SELASAR TAMAN TAMBUN" as below, it means that you are in the right track.

Turn around, you will find this sign right in the corner of the wall. Not very clear instead.

After that, you have to climb over the wall like me.

You will see a horse stable in front of you. Well, keep on walking along the cave.

Finally, we saw this sign. "Gua Tambun".

 Unfortunately, the gate was closed but not locked. Since there were no others here. We decided not to go any further. It looks creepy to us.

Somemore, the bridge is broken.

I wonder why there was no any maintenance at this historical area. I hope to see the Neolithic drawings so much!

I want to see this.
