Taman Tamadun Islam | Kuala Terengganu

Assalamualaikum wbt and have a good day readers!

It has been a while since I last write about travel. Lately have been busy with my job, preparing slides for presentation and so forth. I'm gonna write about my visit to Taman Tamadun Islam during my visit to Terengganu a few months ago.

Taman Tamadun Islam

Pulau Wan Man, Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu, 21000, Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu, 21000, Malaysia

Taman Tamadun Islam is located in Pulau Wan Man, not so far from Kuala Terengganu city centre. There's a lot of signboard which will direct you to Taman Tamadun Islam. Thus, it's not so difficult to find it. Taman Tamadun Islam is collectively comprised of several attractions such as Taman Monumen, Masjid Kristal and Convention Centre. Our main purpose to visit here was to visit the Taman Monumen. The entrance fee is RM15 for adult, RM8 for children and senior citizen.

The weather was burning like usual. It was very bright and walking to an open-spaced park under the hot sunlight is not very comfortable though. We had to rest in the air-conditioned building for a few times while roaming around the park. There's less tourists in the park because it was neither school holiday nor public holiday.

There are many mosque monuments here, all were built based on the real mosque around the world. First, I visited the National Mosque Kuala Lumpur miniature. The monument was quite nice and well done, but wasn't been took care of so well. Some parts were collapsed and dirt could be seen too alongside dried leaves. Some monuments even have plants growing on them.

nampak real tak?

Among the interesting monuments include Masjidil Haram, Masjid Nabawi, Masjid Sultan (Singapore), Taj Mahal, Dome of Rock, Masjid Sheikh Lutfallah (Iran) and many others. Visiting each of the mosque  monument definitely will be more interesting and relaxing if the weather was okay. I felt very happy seeing the mosque monument knowing that I had visited the real mosque myself.

After finishing the tour, we headed outside and dropped by the souvenir shops. I bought some souvenir pens, magnet and keychains. The price were extremely expensive for locals thus I couldn't afford to shop more. Then, we had a break at the nearby cafe. We eased ourselves with cold drinks and ABC. Slurrrppp~

Then, we walked again to take photo with the Crystal Mosque. It was very pretty and classy. We only took photo from afar because we had to rush back to Dungun to send my brother to UiTM.

Adios~

Kuala Terengganu Waterfront

Kuala Terengganu waterfront is located just a few minutes from our hotel, Hotel Seri Malaysia Terengganu and also from Pasar Besar Payang. This place is awesome during night fall, since there will be a lot glittering, shimmering artificial tree-lamps. The view is very nice, quite similar to i-City in Seksyen 7, Shah Alam.

I went to the waterfront with my brother, Sufi as my parents just wanted to stay and rest in the hotel room. Another interesting thing to do around the waterfront is that you can rent and ride ATV (all terrain vehicle) but I'm not sure how much it will cost. We just took a stroll there to capture some photos. Here are the moments that I would like to share with you guys.. :)

Haaa, bling2 tak? Next post will be about Pasar Besar Payang and Taman Tamadun Islam. Let's hope that I will have some spare time to do the writing.. :)

Hotel Seri Malaysia Kuala Terengganu

Assalamualaikum wbt and have a good day peeps!

So, after having a quick tour in Kelantan where we covered Kota Bharu and Rantau Panjang, my family and I continued our journey back to Terengganu. In Kuala Terengganu, we stayed in Hotel Seri Malaysia. We have been staying a for few times already. Nice service. They provides free wifi as well. :)

Staying in a hotel, it's kinda a must to have breakfast here. This is because in hotel, they serve a wide range of food for us to enjoy. Besides that, we had dinner here as well. We tried the steamboat set which so RM40 per stove. For me, it's kinda worth it, suitable for 4 persons.

Breakfast

Food includes heavy-type Malaysian breakfast menu such as fried kuetiau, fried rice, porridge and toast with kaya. Cereals were also served.

Porridge

Curry noodles

Toast & kaya

Mixed cereals

Dinner

Steamboat consists of beef, chicken, shrimp, cuttlefish, fishballs and a range of veggies aside from noodles and eggs. Served with four types of condiments including chilli slices and sauces. The fried rice was just for back up just in case we're still hungry after eating the steamboat. Lol

Our itinerary in Terengganu includes visiting Taman Tamadun Islam where we could walk around miniatures of mosques from all over the world. Crystal Mosque is also located around here. This is gonna be niceee~
