Terengganu Beach Wonders

Holiday in Terengganu, u can't escape going to beach. Any beach either in mainland or at the island such as Rantau Abang. Its beautiful and with lush green scenery makes me love to visit this place anytime. I haven't visited any island except Langkawi but i would say that their mainland beach is excellent. If you want better privacy, island is the best choice. Pulau Redang and Pulau Kapas is the example for island available in Terengganu. One thing about the island is their price. Either food or hotel, their price would be higher but in return you will get first class treatment rather the mainland counterpart.

There's one spot to be visit other than the beach, its the popular Pasar Payang. The Central Market, locally known as Pasar Payang, is located by the Terengganu River and is one of the most popular tourist spots in Kuala Terengganu. Housed in a modern building, it offers visitors a variety of traditional handicrafts such as batik, silk, songket, brocade and brassware, as well as fresh produce.

Visitors to this market will have a delightful experience shopping for local products at reasonable prices. It is also a great place to experience the culture as locals do their daily shopping there too. While there, try a special local delicacy called Keropok Lekor, which is a crispy wafer made from a mixture of fish and sago. It is meant to be dipped in a chilli based sauce. Delicious!
