Terengganu - Tembat Waterfall

Located on the Tembat River, the waterfall is a beautiful gradual series of flowing water on boulders and edges. Unlike Lasir and Saok, Tembat is actually composed of five rapids with fast Nowing streams to form a cascading waterfall. It is a very popular spot for visitors and campers as there is a camping site by the fall which can accommodate a fairly large group easily. In addition, there is also a hiking trail which will enable you to reach the top and from that vantage point you will be rewarded with a magnificent view of the waterfall. From Gawi to Tembat you only need a 45 to 60-minute boatride.

Terengganu - Ajil Pheasant Park

Every year-end marks the routine of packing your bags and stuffing the whole family into the MPV, but this particular trip has added a little spice compared to our usual whirlwind eating, shopping and arguing about who gets to sit by the window. We headed to Terengganu to visit the nature and to unwind from our urban woes and appreciate magnificent creatures of flight- birds.

Heading towards Kuala Berang and Kenyir Lake is the Ajil Pheasant Park that was certified as the biggest bird park in the country by the Malaysian Book of Records. Fancy that - who knew the sleepy town was a gateway to wildlife wonders? Entrance fee into the park is at an affordable RM10.00 for foreign tourists, local adults at RM6.00 while children are RM4.00. School children are given a special rate of only RM2.00.

Terengganu - Bewah and Taat Cave

Bewah and Taat, two towering limestone hills, abound with mystery and legends. These hills, occasionally shrouded in mist, provide some of the most spectacular sights in Tasik Kenyir.

Before the creation of Tasik Kenyir, Taat had three caves and the lowest, the Tok Bidan Cave, is now submerged under water. This is the site where archaeologists and historians have uncovered artifacts such as kitchen utensils, axes and tools dating back to the Neolithic era.

You can now explore the Taat Caves through its two visible entrances while the nearby Bewah Cave has only one entrance.

Inside these caves an extraordinary sight os stalactites and stalagmites awaits the explorer. It is advisable to bring along torchlight should you explore Taat Cave. At Bewah Caves, Solar Lighting are available.

Terengganu - Kenyir Lake

Kenyir Lake is the largest man-made lake in Southeast Asia. Sharing its border with Kelantan in the west and Pahang in the south. This immense lake also serve as another gateway to Taman Negara. The lake covers 260 km² and contains 340 small islands, which were once hiltops and highlands, more than 14 waterfalls, numerous rapids and rivers. Because the lake is a reservoir, the water level can vary depending on the month. The water level is highest (and the lake consequently the most beautiful) in March and April.
