I’ve planned this trip for a year, hoping that I will bring my family to visit and see the grapes…fresh grapes hanging on the tree with our own eyes.  And now, it’s time!  Again, a year ago, I simply Google about grapevine in Malaysia, and it shows me this result.  This is how I found Malaysia does has a grapevine!  Thank you Google!

One of my friend told me that I can spend a day to visit the whole town.  As it is really a small town, so I decided to pay a visit with my family when we are on our way to Penang.  Basically I was following this map from kkangsarheritage.blogspot.com : I did not visited all the spots.  The 1st rubber tree is a MUST VISIT spot, so to the Royal Museum. If you see this…it means you are confirm in the royal town…hahahah…    The Iskandariah Palace The Royal Museum – closed for renovation.  This palace was built without a nail.  It was a temporarily stay place for the Sultan while waiting for Iskandariah Palace to be completed. MCKK – the 1st Malay College was established at 5th Jan 1905 The Pavilion   Nearby the MCKK, you will see the 1st rubber tree in Malaysia. Sultan Azlan Shah Palace – a museum that you may want to visit.  It’s all about Sultan Azlan Shah.   And not forget to recommend this kopitiam, you may want to try it out.  It’s name Restaurant Yat Lai
