I AM THE BORNEO EXPLORER 婆罗洲探险者

  Sri Aman is a market town and port, and the capital of Sri Aman District and Sri Aman Division in Sarawak, Borneo.   Sri Aman is famous for the benak, or tidal bore, of the Batang Lupar River. The tidal bore comes in from the river mouth and fills up the river very rapidly in the course of about 10 minutes. Another singnature building here will be the Fort Alice, I was here last time  (click to read), and it was still close from public. But today 2015 May onward the Fort had become a museum and its open for public to visit. Some story about the Fort Alice The 150-year-old fort built in 1864 in Sri Aman – then called Simanggang – is a legacy of the white rajahs who ruled Sarawak.

Went to Genting Highland for a 3 days 2 night trip, and one of the place I found very interesting is the Chin Swee Cave Temple , situated near the Genting Highland resort. You can use the free shutter bus from the first world hotel to reach there. The Chin Swee translate to Chinese means clear water. The view are breathtaking, cause its situated on the top of the highland.   Many magnificent sculpture on the temple wall.   The godes of mercy   I read the story of The Journey to the West since I was little, and I like the story very much. I was born in the year of Monkey, so today I escort my master and protect him, and assist by two brothers to the Journey of the West to get the sutera. :P   My next destination, the tall Pagoda...   The highest are Level 9, ran up there, need to slowdown to catch my breath.

Had a wonderful camping trip at Santubong campsite over the weekend, just 10 minutes walk from the park ranger office we reach this open space area with flat ground, and a ready barbecue pit. There is a nice river next to our campsite, and its very important cause we can get life saving water from the stream. There are total of 8 person, and the food we had was bamboo chicken, bamboo rice, fish, pork, and as for desert, we have soft drink, chips, and jelly. I was extremely full after all these food, my belly cannot handle all the food.  It was a hot day, and after night fall, i got bitten by a few sand-flies, so quickly jumps into my tent and sleep. Overall, wonderful trip, next trip plan to camp at waterfall area.  Check out the 3D view created by Microsoft Photosynth, will do more of these in the future.
