Muar river near the FELDA of Jelai

Just an excursion from the storytelling on places visited in Sumatera such as Samosir Island and the town of Parapat...

Just over 2 weeks ago I brought the wife, son and two stepkids to places in Melaka and Muar. Then we slept over at my sister-in-law's place at the FELDA (federal settlement scheme) of Jelai, Negeri Sembilan and not far from it lies this wooden suspension bridge.


It crosses over the local portion of the Muar river. Here's a look downriver.


The bridge lies off the rural road connecting the FELDA of Jelai to the small town of Pasir Besar which in turn lies on the road to the much bigger town of Bahau.


A look upriver. Further up lies a very interesting place just 2-3 km from Bahau. Look at the old article Where Muar river meets Jempol in Negeri Sembilan....
