[The Memories that Left Behind]
Before we start our last adventure,
Let's have a review on our previous posts.
From the first post,
we have back to the origin,
The Herb Garden.
Then we have visited to Taiping,
the land of peace,
the land of nature.
 

[The Last Chapter - Sungkai]
As we known that Malaysia located within Tropicana zone,
especially in Perak, 
we can found that there are plenty of woodlands,
therefore we decided our Final Destination

 [The Short History]
Let's have a brief history of this place
before we move on to the interesting part.


Sungkai Hotspring is located within the area of
FELDA, Sungkai, Perak in Malaysia.
It was officially established since December 2003.
It is reputed to be one of
the best managed hot springs in Malaysia
and is located 200 feet above the sea level at
the foothill of the Titiwangsa Range.

This excitement is like a forest fire,
