[Chpeck]

This trip has been confirmed just looking for more enthusiates to share the fun.

 

I have done the Penang to Kelantan before, for just the cornering parts is enough to justify the whole trip let alone the sceneries and food.

Why not use the coastal route from Mersing-Kuantan-K Terengganu-KB? I think this route is shorter....

 

I've been to Kelantan (not sure the town's name) to attend a friend's wedding in year 2000. Was driven to KB to look around, and found nothing much there. But then the places might have changed and developed over the years since yr 2000...

 

Perhaps you can check in the internet for some attractions:

I think kelantan still very backward. If u intetested in old school stuff...maybe then u like. Prices sub b very cheap.

 

I think ty follow strict muslim law there so b careful.

 

Can try their local food. Fly kite during season or buy e big kite (Wow) back to display on wall. Hahaha.

 

I doubt i wil go there fr a holiday. Seems like so many other interesting states to go.

 

Even kuantan n trengganu more stuff to see n do.

Exactly bro. Those want to see rustic surroundings, and how people live there under strict Muslim law, can go to Kelantan. If not, just pass-by (either on way to Thailand, on way to Penang from Terengganu or back) is good enough.

 

Not many Chinese there too. Most women there also all covered up....nothing much to see!

[Jman888]

what is there in Kelantan to do or see ?? :huh:

Yalor....actually the most important thing is the local women there don't expose too much flesh, so nothing for him to see! He'll be bored to death...

[TameDriver]

There's a beach facing South China Sea in KB.....forgot the name in Malay......used to be called Beach of Passionate Love.

 

Now name changed to something else after PAS took over.

And if ty catch him so much as looking at a syt....ty bring him to e kadi(local justice of e peace) n arrange him to marry e ger.
