Kesang river at the route from Asahan



Continuing the journey to Muar we soon arrived at the border between the states of Melaka and Johor.


See the signboard ahead? That marks the point were one has entered Johor and it is situated above a bridge.


The bridge crosses the Kesang river which is a natural boundary between Melaka and Johor. Here's a look upriver. In the background is the mountain called Gunung Ledang.


Going for a downriver view.


For the record dry season has been running the last few months. So there's not much water to be seen...


A look again at Gunung Ledang from Asahan

This is from last weekend...

Saturday 9th April 2016. After attending a wedding function in Jelai, Negeri Sembilan me and family took a rural road to get to Muar.


From the road one could get to the small town of Asahan in the state of Melaka, an access point to get to the mountain called Gunung Ledang.


From Asahan you need to travel some 7 km to get to the foot of the mountain. On the way we found a nice vantage point to have a good look at the famous mountain.


A look to the right...


A look ahead at the mountain peaks...


A look to the right.


A close up look at the peaks. Go figure which one is the summit. By the way we have been to Asahan a few times before and have been to the summit. But that is via another route...


Visit to Kuala Kubu hot spring

Just something from end of last month...


Wednesday 30th March 2016 me and wife went to the town of Kuala Kubu Baru to settle some urgent matters. On the way out we noticed a signboard leading to the local hot spring. So we decided to follow up.


We soon arrived at the said place.





We have been to a number of hot springs around the Klang Valley and this is the first time we checked out the one in Kuala Kubu...
