Muar river around the mosque of Ranjau Hantu

Peace be upon you all. More things to be shared from the trip to Negeri Sembilan last weekend.

Early Sunday morning 27th March 2022. After spending the night at this mosque in a place called Ranjau Hantu I went around to take pictures.

The mosque is situated near the Muar river.

So I took pictures of the river from a number of nearby locations, and from a number of angles...

Actually the river bends closest to the north compound of the mosque...

The mosque is practically flanked by the Muar river from all sides except the south...

New visit to Pengkalan Kempas water front

Peace be upon you all. Last weekend me and family went for a trip in Negeri Sembilan. So there are things to be shared starting with this...

Saturday afternoon 26th March 2022. After visiting a number of places near the small town of Linggi we went to the smaller town of Pengkalan Kempas where lies this water front.

There is a signboard which says this is where the ancestors of the Chinese landed, probably more than two centuries ago.

The water front is situated besides the Linggi river.

It is known to be the main waterway to get directly to the state of Negeri Sembilan especially to Linggi, Seremban (used to be known as Sungei Ujong) and Rembau.
