Slightly further on you can see these buildings.
It is among the chalets available at this resort, the only one on top of Gunung Jerai.
One thing about this place is the superb view you could get.
From here you can practically peer down on almost half of Kedah's coast. Such is the vista provided from 1,200 metres high.
Actually Gunung Jerai has a higher peak as seen in the background. For the record most mountains have a number of peaks and the one see here is the highest for this mountain. However it is thickly covered by jungles and growth obscuring the view. Besides the topmost part is guarded by the military and thus off-limit to civilians.
As far as I could gather the peak we were standing at here is the second highest. Thus officially it is designated as the top of Gunung Jerai where everyone could pay a visit. In the background is the surau or small praying hall within the resort's compound. Look around and you could see it is the highest point around these parts...
A view of the chalets previously seen in the first picture. This one is taken from the verandah of the surau.
A view towards the coast. It is refreshing to see such a wide vista.
I was trying to remember from which angle this picture was taken. Then I noticed the stains on and realised it was taken from inside the surau pass the glasses.
