The lakes at Batu Arang

Just an excursion from the Aceh and Muar stories. Then again there's no more Aceh and Muar stories to tell, at least at this juncture...

One fine day I took the wife and baby out on a drive at Batu Arang, Selangor and took a new route (new for us at least) and saw these lakes.

We were very suprised not to have seen this area earlier is it is just 3-4 km or so from our home.



That's the wife and baby posing near the lakes.

We also discovered how the routes to the lakes are connected to the chimney which is a major landmark for Batu Arang. For the record Batu Arang means "coal stone" and this chimney was part of a complex to process coal which used to be mined here.



In front of the chimney lies this curious looking building, perhaps part of the complex too...

Here's the roundabout lying just a short distance from the chimney. It is also a landmark which defines the small town of Batu Arang. Note that this is the 565th article in this blogspot, made on the night of 27 Ramadhan, my 41st birthday according to the Islamic Hijriah calendar. Good night! :]
