#newyearadventure I stayed here over the weekend with my family. It was a great experience staying in a bamboo hut. Initially I was afraid if the resort is not in a good condition due to the flood situation that impacted them end of last year. But my worries are unfounded as the moment I reach the resort, I can see that the resort had done an excellent job in cleaning up and beautifying the place. The check in progress was okay as there weren’t many people. I guess it’s due to the increased recent Covid cases. The receptionist is friendly and helpful. However, the food can be improve further. The room I stayed is clean and cooling at night (without turning on the air on) but don’t expect it to be hotel like standard. #MyTripVlog #2023TravelWish #tripblazers #yearofrabbit #newyearadventure

Tried lunch at this restaurant for the first time. The staff is friendly and service is good. The atmosphere in the restaurant is interesting and comfortable with Middle Eastern music. We are very satisfied with the service from the staff and the food served. We ordered Lamb Haneeth, Shish Tawook, Hummus Shami, Fried Chicken Drummet and Adani Tea Milk was tempting and delicious. The portions are big and the price is reasonable. Very recommended!! Will repeat again next time!! 📍Address: Hadramout King, Banting

#favouriteitinerary Istana Bandar, also known as Istana Alaeddin, is a breathtaking historical palace in Jugra, Selangor, that exudes an air of mystery and grandeur. Built in 1905 by Sultan Alaeddin Sulaiman Shah, this abandoned palace was once the royal residence and administrative center of Selangor. Walking through its ornate archways, intricate wood carvings, and grand staircases, you can almost feel the echoes of its regal past. The blend of Malay, Indian, and Islamic architectural styles creates a hauntingly beautiful atmosphere, making it a dream for history buffs and photographers. When I visited the palace, I must be honest that I felt goosebumps walking through this deserted hall and poorly lit corridor. It must be once a beautiful place!

It was packed but they managed to serve within 20 min, judging from the crowd, I thought it was reasonable. Despite understaffed, they still served with smile. food was great, price was super reasonable. I will definitely come back. Food: 4/5 | Service: 4/5 | Atmosphere: 3/5

#myhiddengems One of the good beach view in Selangor, the nearest getaway from town. The best marhaen waterpark within this area. If you plan to stay at this resort please choose under airbnb or private homestay to get the best deal and good room condition. Anyway water park is the best and clean plus have a lifeguard too. Overall, this is my first time here, but will come again somewhere in the future for the themepark and the private beach.

#myhiddengems A wonderful place to visit. The architecture of the Palace reflects the rich cultural heritage of this land and preservation of these sites will enable tourists to appreciate the beauty of Malaysia. More information about the Palace should be researched and displayed as currently, there is not enough information about how the Palace was used in the different sections with courtyards and all. We can only guess and imagine... The place however is well taken care of and clean. Kudos to that! The guard at the gate entrance was very friendly and pleasant.

This Castle is located in Kampung Bandar, Jugra, Selagor Malaysia. The palace was originally the residence of the Sultan of Negeri Selangor when Jugra was the capital of Negeri Selangor . Like to make plan with historical theme in the Malaysia~~ This palace can make people feel excited and curious with lifestyle Sultan Malaysia. Hopefully, people can feel encitement.. just like me😆😆#istanabandar #historicalsite #selangorhistory #bentongpahang

#wheretogo If you want to have a short break with friends & family during long weekend, I would suggest a hidden gem hill in Kuala Langat named Jugra Hill 🥰 Jugra hill is located at Banting, Selangor, about 60km from Kuala Lumpur. It is suitable for everyone for trekking, the difficulty level is easy to extreme level depending on the routes. 📍Easy to medium: The Lighthouse, 60 minutes 📍Extreme: Rajawali Peak, 100 minutes Today I am going to challenge myself, so I choose the longest route & high difficulty level to the Rajawali Peak. It takes about 45 minutes to reach to the Rajawali Peak & another 45 minutes on the way down. 🤣 So please be patience, enjoy the scenery during the hike & remember to wear a comfortable shoes. 😇 As a rewards, we are able to swing in Rajawali Peak as a sweet memories 🥳 Attraction: Rajawali Peak, Bukit Jugra, Banting, Selangor #rajawalipeak #bukitjugra #banting #hiking
