taman negara NP

bank negara is national bank. so what is taman negara? yep, you are right, it means national park and it is the first and still most important NP in malaysia on the mainland too (malay peninsula). it was our next stop after kuala lumpur, cambodia, perhentian islands and before we returned to KL and back home to germany via amsterdam.

perhentian islands + kota bharu

back from cambodia, let's spend a week at a beach in malaysia => let's go to perhentian islands. we have stayed at the smaller ('kecil') island, pulau perhentian kecil.

the is an airport and a lot of malay muslim culture to see in kota bharu, the capitol of kelantan, one of the traditional malay provinces. to the perhantians it is about 1.5 hours drive by taxi and a about an additional hour by the speed boat to the two perhentian islands (kecil + besar)
