♥ Sungai Lembing, Kuantan.. ♥

A day trip to Sungai Lembing which located at Kuantan with my beloved family. For your information, Sungai Lembing had the largest, longest and deepest subterranean tin mine in the world and was once the richest town and producer of tin in Pahang.

Besides visiting the old tunnel entrances and observing the quaint traditional Malay houses and the old town center buildings, we also visiting the Sungai Lembing Museum, Perkelahan Pasir Kubur and not to forget to try their local tomato mee.

p/s : Sorry that not much photo is sharing here because most of the photos (200++ photos) were being deleted due to the error that occurred during the transfer of photos :(
