This one is taken at a jetty where one could get small boats to ferry people across the river to either the island of Pulau Duyung which sits smack in the middle of the waters close to the estuary or to Seberang Takir, the northern banks of the estuary...
From the jetty one could see a floating restaurant and some boats waiting for customers...
Then I visited the bustling market of Pasar Payang, a pride of the locals... The place has a wet market and a bazaar selling mainly the famous Terengganu woven and coloured clothes, the Kain Batik and Kain Songket...
Afterwards I headed for Kampung Cina, literally translated as the "chinese village", an early settlement for Chinese immigrants which is still famous for its quaintness... Along the way, saw the Masjid Abidin, also known as the white mosque not so far away...
Soon enough, I am in Kampung Cina...
A look through the walkways...
The street itself is quite narrow...
Once in a while, one could take a peek across the Terengganu river...
And there's a few rather magnificent old buildings such as this...
This...
And this...
Soon enough, it's time to go... The gates seen at the end of the street marks the end of Kampung Cina... Or rather the start as I actually entered from the opposite side. Ends! :]
