THE JOURNEY TO THE SUMMIT
攻顶的路上
When we reach the Kujang Sain village, we parked our car there. There is a school at the entrance, so its very safe to park our car there. 
来到这个村落叫 KUJAN SAIN。这村落的进口就是学校,我们的车子就停放在这里,非常安全。

We start our journey by crossing multiple streams. 
一开始我们就要走过小溪流,之后还有数个溪流。
Then follow by paper farm
走过胡椒园
Since its the raining season now, so the trail are mostly muddy trail.
现在是雨季,地上都是泥巴。好难走,路也是好滑。我自己都摔到。
We also get to enjoy beautiful paddy field along our way.
走过了稻田
Our guide owns a pices of land, and he planted durian trees. Its the durian season now, and we get to eat durian along the way.
现在也是榴莲季节,我们的向导自己种植了榴莲。请我们吃榴莲。这样的徒步真好,有免费的榴莲吃,吃了后有可以补充精力。
Look at the delicious durian on the tree. 
满树都是榴莲,看了垂涎三尺。
Part of our journey is hike to the bamboo forest
走过竹林
A snail shell which is as big as my palm
像我的手掌般大的蜗牛壳
This tree are so huge, I estimate will need about 5 - 6 adults holding hands to circle the tree trunk.
一颗百年大树。至少要五,六人才能围一圈这颗大树。
The higher we go, the steeper it gets. Need a lot of strength to slowly hike up
越高越钭,我就越走越吃力。脚软了~
Almost reach the summit after 3 hours of hike
大概三个小时后,终于要到山顶了
This is the highest point of Gunung Rawan, there is a border stone on the highest point. No view on the summit, however there is a viewpoint nearby. But unfortunately all cover by fog. 
这就是山顶,可惜没有景色好看。都被大树围绕着。不远处有个望角,但是风景被雾遮盖了。非常可惜。

The Bung Jagoi Heritage Centre Hike and the Bung Tesen Peak Viewpoint

With just around 320 meters above sea level, the Bung Jagoi it's one of the most family friendly trail available in Kuching. The trail is super easy to hike, and suitable for children and old people, a good weekend gateway. Not to forget it also has a very nice viewpoint on the summit peak.  And if hiking is not your cup of tea, you can also bring your family to the waterfall, just a few mins hike at the base of the mountain.  There is a big parking space for your car, a few ringgit per car. This is a restaurant, and we paid our entrance fees here. They also offer daily tour package, which includes food.  A friend of mine bring his 70+ years old mother and two young children to hike together, and impressively she made it to the summit.  A waterfall trail just below the mountain. Good for children, as I know my children like to play in the water more than hiking to the summit.  Very clear water from the mountain.  view along the way to the summit A souvenir...

For people who like exercise, this is the perfect place to come. There are stairs built to ease the ...

Camping at Pugu Beach Lundu Kuching

Pugu Beach situated at Lundu, after Pandan beach. Drive all the way up you will see road sign showing where is the beach location. Its a long stretch of beach, which lead all the way to the river mount of Sungai Sebako Besar. My friends and I decided to visit the place, and stay at the resort hut which we paid RM50 per night. Pugu Beach is about 7.11km long from bukit Gondol. The day I visited, was a hazy day. Partly due to the heavy burning on our neighboring country Kalimantan. A panoramic view of the Pugu Beach, the view are very nice if you are at the top of the bukit Gondol. A small hill on the other end of the beach. Enjoying the time hanging out with my buddies. Long time did not meet up with them, and camping together with them. Hope in future, we can have time to go for adventure together, just like old time. This is a simple resort hut, they also have a toilet and washroom. But they don't sell food, so we have to bring our own food and water....

This is the Mount Hosanna Chapel, while on my way back from Sri Aman, I drop by this place, and it is located about 157 KM from Kuching city (near Seri Aman), Malaysian Borneo. You can see this chapel just beside the Kuching - Sri Aman highway. What interesting about this place first is the design of the chapel, and second will be the story behind it, and it goes like where God spoke to the philanthropist who funded the church construction and healed his wife which is diagnose with critical illness. When I meet one of the chapel members there, and asked about this, he deny this. And told me that this is not true, and it was the priest himself who raise the fund to build this chapel. So I walk up to the chapel, and visit the place. Saw a priest is currently blessing the members. The building looks like three big candles,  it means Trinity. In Christian doctrine, the Trinity is the unity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as three persons in one Godhead ...
