OK... Continuing from Visiting old tombs in Kuala Berang... After I'm done there, it's time to head back to Kuala Terengganu before I can go nortwards into the state of Kelantan as part of the main itenarery for my latest trip to the East Coast... But first I must stop at Pulau Manis some 15km or more from south-west from Terengganu... There's a place I must visit there which is related to the places I visited in Kuala Berang...
But since Pulau Manis lies off the main route to Kuala Terengganu and I'm afraid I've already missed the scarce bus service which passes this way, I decided to walk while trying to hitchike a ride... Walked on to this junction some 3km or so from Kuala Berang...
Then I managed to get a ride on the bike and was sent to this area which is very close to Pulau Manis...
Had to walk again but for only a kilometre or so through this parts of the woods...
There it is, the blue building which is the surau (small praying hall) of Tok Pulau Manis... A venerable religious man and a saint of 17th Century Terengganu... His tomb lies just 50 metres or so behind the yellow brick building which is actually as place for rest for visitors to the tomb. However I would only do a story of the saint later in a coming posting for the blogspot CATATAN SI MERAH SILU ...
Just 100 metres away is the mosque of Pulau Manis...
Behind it is the river Terengganu... The story will continue another day with some more views of Kuala Terengganu ya. Cheers! :]
