Weekend breakaway to east coast

Together with a university buddhist friends, we headed to Sg. Lembing. The Friday night was young & 300km travel to east was our destination: peaceful town named Sg. Lembing, Pahang: A town formerly known for its tin mining. By the time we reached Sg. Lembing at 1:45am, we were totally exhausted. I'm not young anymore :-(

The guest house that we booked was in tip-top condition. In a blink of seconds, we called it a day. Time past and we woke up at 5:30am to start our day, tasted the infamous Sg. Lembing beancurd. The smooth & fresh beancurd & Sg. Lembing noodles filled up our empty stomach. At 6:30am, we took 4WD to rainbow waterfall, our first destination of the day.

Half way through the bumpy ride to waterfall, we managed to see sea cloud as though we were in heaven. After 1 hour ride, we started our jungle trekking to the waterfall. Walking ups & downs the jungle for about 45 minutes, we reached rainbow waterfall. I will let the pictures do the talking.

We played water with our fellow friends & had maggi instant noodles & milo while enjoying the scenic rainbow waterfall. After 10:30am, we climbed up waterfall to view circle (360 degree) rainbow on the water. Unfortunately, we did not have waterproof camera, hence we were not able to capture the beautiful rainbow.

Coincidentally, Bomba had their rescue practice & we were able to have a shot with the colourful helicopter. (When they practice, many trees fell down as the wind was too strong. Unfortunately, I forgot to captured the devastation.)


In the evening, we went to Teluk Chempedak for beach walk & Pak Su seafood for our dinner. Nothing much to comment about these 2 destinations. Normal seaside & acceptable seafood dinner.

On Sunday, we woke up at 4:30am for Panorama Hill hiking. I could assure you that there were more than 300 hikers today. Unfortunately after our one hour hiking, we were not able to see sea cloud & sunrise. The weather was not in good condition. Luckily we saw it yesterday on the way to rainbow waterfall. This was the weather at Panorama Hill today.

After spending some time at Panorama Hill, we headed down the hill & cleaned up. We visited Sg Lembing Museum, hanging bridge, Charas Cave & had a sip at Kemaman coffee on our way back to complete our journey.

We are back to hustle and bustle city.
