Views from a hilltop colonial house in Raub

Continuing from Views from the highest building in Bukit Beruntung and around.

Monday morning 31st January 2022. Me and family when to the Raub and took a road leading to this colonial house on a hilltop.

We learned it has been bought by a property developer. The area around has been developed into a housing estate...

The house itself looks like it has been rehabilitated.

Whatever you can get nice views around from the house.

Views from the highest building in Bukit Beruntung and around

Continuing from Selangor river close to Bukit Beruntung.

Returning back to Bukit Beruntung I went to this aparment building.

I went up to the highest floor accessible by lift. If I remember correctly the lift button marks it as the 12th floor.

Then I saw a staircase leading to a higher floor.

It is the highest that could be decently reached. By decent I mean not having to climb up the roof and such...

There is another building with the exactly the same design across but situated on lower ground. Counting at the windows one could see there is actually 1 lowest floor + 13 floors + 3 highest floors making up a total of 17 floors.

Ah now I remember. The lowest floor is marked as LG on the lift button. The next floor marked as G. That is why the top floor accessible by lift is marked as 12th.

After that are 3 floors for maintenance including that for lift. I could access the first floor of that but not the others further up.

However views from that floor are limited only to the south and sides. For views to the east, north and west I have to return to the designated 12th floor...

Whatever I could see this is the highest building in Bukit Beruntung.

In fact based on my first hand observation around this could be the highest building within a radius of 20 km. Maybe more...

Selangor river close to Bukit Beruntung

Continuing from Destruction caused by unusual rain and wind at my garden.

Sunday morning 30th January 2022. I took this road northwards from Bukit Beruntung.

It soon gave way to a dirt road.

This leads to a number of abandoned mines which have turned into anglers' heaven.

Retracting back I took a junction leading to another dirt road. After some time I could see a river.

This is a part of the Selangor river close to Bukit  Beruntung...

Exploring the dirt road further I next arrived at a bridge crossing the river...

Turning back to return towards Bukit Beruntung while taking pictures.

Then I made a stop to have a better look at the bridge.

Ah. It is actually built from metal. But the surface is filled with soil making it hard to distinguish from the dirt road when seen from above.
