Continued from A quick look around Jasin.
Next we went to the town of Alor Gajah where I stopped the car near its main roundabout (or was it its only roundabout?)...
Alor Gajah is a small town which holds quite a number of fond childhood memories for me. Here's a look across from where the car was parked at.
Turning 30 degress or so clockwise. I still remember, before the PLUS or North-South Highway was opened to replace the importances of the north-south trunk road one must pass Alor Gajah along the way. The park seen above did not exist when my dad used to take the whole family pass this way.
Turning further anti clockwise. The shophouses seen here however is part of classic old Alor Gajah.
The town used to be quite famous for its satay or skewered meat and we used to have our regular fill. On to the park which if I remember correctly was opened just over a decade ago.
There's a giant replica of the kris or keris, a Malay traditional weapon.
Besides it lies a museum on local culture...
