Pantai Desaru

Saturday, August 7, 2010

Hi, i am doing pantai Desaru link..So here i want to explore the uniqueness of Pantai Desaru.

Desaru, located on the south eastern seaboard of Johor is an ideal resort destination that is easily accessible from Singapore and the rest of the country. Also known as the Village of Casuarinas, it commands a breathtaking 17-kilometer shoreline bordering the South China Sea and its tropical forest hinterland. The constant southeast trade winds blow gently, providing that vital ingredient for sailing and wind surfing, two of the most popular water sports here.








Get to Pantai Desaru




Easily accessible from Singapore and the northern areas by road via Kota Tinggi and by ferry services from Changi Point, Singapore. It takes 1 hour and 20 minutes drive from Johor Bahru to Desaru. I was lucky as the weather was perfect.

The view was great especially when you are about to enter Desaru. The landscape was well maintained and surrounded by lush greenery of tropical forest. You can see a couple of pictures taken. Public transport are available from Johor Bahru, Kota Tinggi and Tanjung Belungkor to Desaru. Approximate traveling time and distance when driving to Desaru :


From Johor Bahru 100 km 1 hr. 30 mm
From Kuala Lumpur 436 km 4 hrs. 15 mm
From Singapore 125 km 2 hrs. 15 mm


For those guests that prefer to travel by Ferry from Singapore. Operates four sailing a day between Changi Ferry Terminal and Tanjong Belungkor Ferry Terminal. The ferry has capacity for 400 passengers and 70 cars in its car deck.




Endao Rompin

Endau-Rompin National Park is the second designated national park in Peninsular Malaysia.And rightly so, as it contains the one of world's oldest rainforests and the volcanic rocks there date back 240 million years. Its name is derived from the two rivers through the park; the Endau river in the south in the state of Johor and the Rompin river in the state of Pahang in the north. It also has some unique flora and fauna, including the endangered Sumatran Rhino. It has some of Malaysia's best waterfalls namely Buaya Sangkut, Upeh Guling and Batu Hampar all within 2 hours trek of each other. Also you'll get a chance to meet the indigenous peoples of Peninsular Malaysia, known locally as Orang Asli. The major tribe that call the park home is the Jakun. A proper trip to see all the major highlights of Endau-Rompin National Park should take 3 days. Of course it's not hard to spend a week to get lost amidst the breathtaking rivers and forests. Unless you're an experienced jungle trekker, it's best to stick to the packages offered – the Johor National Parks Corporation organises the most reasonably priced ones.

The Johor-Singapore Causeway (Malay: Tambak Johor) is a 1,056 metre causeway that links the city of Johor Bahru in Malaysia across the Straits of Johor to the town of Woodlands in Singapore. It serves as a road, rail, and pedestrian link, as well as water piping into Singapore. The causeway connects to the Skudai Highway (Federal Route 1) on the Malaysian side and the Bukit Timah Expressway on the Singaporean side. It carries 60,000 vehicles on a typical day, with particularly bad traffic congestion on the eve of public holidays.


HISTORY

The Johor-Singapore Causeway was completed in 1923 after four years of construction. It was partially severed in 1942 during the Second World War, to prevent the Japanese army from invading Singapore. However, it was rebuilt once the Japanese had captured Singapore. During the 1964 Race Riots, the causeway was closed from 22 to 26 July, 1964.

How are you everyone? I hope all of you are best.

Next I will introduce the Puteri Gunung Ledang in south of malaysia.



The legendary beauty of Mount Ophir (Gunung Ledang) has made it one of Johor's most popular attractions for hikers and birdwatchers. There two known ways of reaching the summit. One is from Sagil, a town in Johor, the other is through Asahan, Melaka. The shorter route is from Asahan. Gunung Ledang ( or Mount Ophir as it is otherwise better known ) is the most visited mountain in Malaysia. It is not peculiar to find people who has climb the mountain more than 10 times.


The reason being, the place is easily accessible and suitable for beginners who wants to feel what mountains in Malaysia are really like. Some groups are using this mountain as a training ground for other challenging venues.

Mysticism aside, the mountain is a natural beauty with its challenging mountain trails, icy waterfalls, cascades, diverse birdlife, flora and fauna. Straddling the Johor/Melaka border, Gunung Ledang is the highest mountain in the two southern states and can be accessed either via the Melaka or Johor route.


The Ledang trail starts from Gunung Ledang resort, near Sagil village is close to the Malacca and Johor border. The other way of reaching the summit is through Asahan trail in Melaka, an easier route. The paved road starts besides the river leading and leads towards a few staircases till an open gate, where the real climbing begins.

The mountain's plateau-like summit peaks at 1,276m above sea level, and offers a panoramic view of the Straits of Melaka and Sumatra coastline on a clear day.Gunung Ledang is ideally-suited for picnickers, nature lovers, birdwatchers, rock-climbers and jungle trekkers and those who seek nature in its raw splendour.


If you want to trek up Gunung Ledang, it's about five hours to the summit from the park. Alternatively, one can arrange a 4WD transfer for a quick and easier trip which interestingly, offers an equally beautiful view of the surrounding Sagil area and a breathtaking sight of Gunung Ledang Dam.



And that, there has a old mystical legend·····

The Legend of Gunung Ledang revolves around a princess that allegedly lived on Mount Ophir in Johor, Malaysia.

Conditions of marriage:
The Sultan had heard of her beauty and wanted to marry her but she set seven impossible conditions for him. The conditions were::* A golden bridge for her to walk to Malacca from the mountain,:* A silver bridge for her to return from Malacca to the mountain,:* Seven jars of virgin's tears,:* Seven bowls of betel nut juice,:* Seven trays filled with hearts of germs,:* Seven trays filled with hearts of mosquitoes, and:* A bowl of the blood of the Sultan's young son.Some versions of the legend say that the Sultan was not able to fulfill any of these requests, while others say that he was able to fulfill the first six requests (thus causing the ruin of the Malacca Sultanate) but could not fulfill the final request which would have required him to kill his son. The point of the story is that the Sultan was either too proud or too blind to realise that the conditions were the Puteri's way of turning his proposal down.
Some say that remnants of the gold and silver bridge still exist, but have been reclaimed by the forest.

Further legend:
Further legend has it that the princess eventually married one Nakhoda Ragam, a hero whose name unfailingly struck terror into the hearts of those who had dared to oppose him. However, this hero was later to die at the hands of his princess-wife. Ragam was fond of tickling the Princess’s ribs. One day, in an uncontrollable burst of anger, the Princess stabbed her husband in the breast with a needle she was handling. Thereafter, the Princess returned to Mount Ophir and vowed never to set her eyes on another man. Ragam’s boat, not long after, was crushed during a storm and legend has it that the debris of the wreck was transformed into the present six islands off Malacca. It was claimed that the boat’s kitchen became Pulau Hanyut, the cake-tray Pulau Nangka, the water-jar Pulau Undan, the incense-burner Pulau Serimbun, the hen-coop Pulau Burong, and the honeymoon cabin of Ragam and the Princess became Pulau Besar.

Mount Ledang:
Ancient history points to the mountain being the site of rich gold deposits, luring traders from as far as Greece and China. In the 14th Century, the Chinese seafarers plying the Straits of Melaka called it ‘Kim Sua’ meaning the ‘Golden Mountain’. The mountain was named ‘Gunung Ledang’, which means ‘mount from afar’, during the period of the Majapahit empire.



That's all. Thanks for your watch my blog. Have a nice day~~~

Initial Proposal

Tuesday, June 29, 2010




Project Objctive:








  This final project is about the 'Tourism Malaysia' and the state that we choose is Johor. The objective is to       promote the well-known places in Johor Bahru and  to provide meaningful information about Johor 
A trip to Johor would be complete without a day or two spent at any one of its beaches, or other attractive places more so since there are a wide variety of destination choices. Beautiful Johor is indeed blessed with breathtaking sandy white beaches and its crystal clear waters would not fail to attract anyone.
Here, each beachfront offers tourist various activities like snorkelling, scuba diving, jet skiing, para sailing and even the simple pleasure of sandbathing.


Johor Bahru, also spelled Johor Baharu, Johor Baruor Johore Bahru and abbreviated as JB, is the capital city  of Johor in southern Malaysia. Johor Bahru is at the southern tip of the Malaysian peninsula, where Malaysia's  north-south highway comes to its southern terminus. A bustling city but one with little of interest for the casual tourist, it is a significant regional transport and manufacturing hub.With a population of approximately 900,000 in the city, and over 1.8 million in its metropolitan area, it is the second largest urban area in the country after the national capital, Kuala Lumpur and its associated Klang Valley region. Johor Bahru has a number of interesting historical buildings and handicraft centers and is within walking distance from Singapore. The city is an important industrial, tourism and commercial hub for southern Malaysia and one of the biggest industrial centers of the country. The population growth rate of Johor Bahru is among the highest in Southeast Asia.


The target audience :
There are a lot of interesting places in Johor. To those who love nature and sports, Endau-Rompin is suitable place for youngsters or students (age around 15-30 years old) to explore the green and nature of one of our top national park. For Johor bahru, JB, the demographics are for all of ages, as it has shopping complex, nice restaurant which people can see the view of Singapore,food-lovers (especially seafood).
The demographics for Pulau Tinggi are mostly couples, students, and youngsters who love beach, snorkelling and diving; offers a range of sea sports as well as comfortable accommodation with white sand beach and clear blue sea. While for Pantai Desaru, mostly are families, package trips because there are some exciting places to visit like fisherman village, fruit farm, beach. And it offers a variety of activities for the whole family including swimming, fishing, snorkelling, canoeing, horse riding, jungle trekking, go-carting, golfing and windsurfing. For youngsters and adults who love adventure like jungle-trekking and climbing, Ledang Mountain is attractive place to go as it has its own legend.
