First time visiting Tasik Chini was really mind-blowing! The quietness and calmness capture our heart. As it far from the city, it became some sort of therapy. There’s a lot of beautiful lotus flowers at the Chini Lake. So i catch a picture of tiny patch of lotus for the memories. I only went there for one day trip. But I heard there’s a few upgraded resorts you can stay. It’s going to be adventurous as the place looks deserted and you may have problems with the internet coverage . It’s maybe pity but can be a relaxing trip. I also enjoy visiting indigenous village and upgrading my blow pipe skills. Overall, nice ‘away from the city’ day trip. #tasik chini

A memorable trip with my high school friends! Located at Sungai Lembing, Kuantan Pahang. Known as Rainbow Waterfall (Air Terjun Pelangi), if the sky is clear and it's not raining that morning, you can see rainbow appeared between the waterfall, hence the name. But unfortunately for us that morning was raining and it is cloudy so the rainbow is nowhere to be seen. But otherwise it is still a good experience for us. #sungailembing #airterjunpelangi #rainbowwaterfall

#freehotelstay From Cherating, we went for a short day trip to Sungai Lembing. Sungai Lembing is famous for a few things: The rainbow waterfall, the mining town and food like Lembing mee ( Lin Ming Mian) and niang tofu. It was a bit hard for us to wake early for rainbow waterfall with 2 kids hence we skipped that and went straight to Lembing town. we had their famous noodles and tried the beancurd. After lunch we went to the Sungai Lembing museum, explore and learn more about the history of the museum. It was quite a nice museum tbh. Before getting back to Cherating, we dropped by the other waterfall for a quick dip and water play. This sums up our short day trip at Sungai Lembing. We will definitely back for rainbow waterfall next time

Good and nice place
