It has been quite awhile since my last blogging. I wish so much to blog here to share with you all how much I have enjoyed my trip to some places that I have been in these few months or it's already been years??!!
Phew.. time flies.
Well, no more words. I just want to share the beauty of one of the places of interest in Kuching that I feel that it's really a pity to just to keep the pictures at my computer's folder. Enjoy~
Tada.. for friends visiting Sematan or Lundu, here are what you may see there.
1. Gunung Gading National Park (at Lundu)
This is the biggest Rafflesia bud I have seen so far. I visiting Gunung Gading 3 times. First time, I wasn't able to see any. My second visit I could only spot a dead Rafflesia ( whole black ). The following picture taken in my third visit, can't get to see a whole flower yet. I got to know from others that the bud bloomed the next day I took this picture. Just not my luck. Hope that the fourth visit I will have the luck to see fully riped Rafflesia.
Follow along the track in the jungle, you will find several waterfalls. If I could remember correctly, the following is Waterfall 3. If you have the stamina to track higher, Waterfall 7 is the best waterfall of all but also the farthest waterfall.
To know more about Gunung Gading National Park.. please catch more information at the official website by Sarawak Forestry below:
2. Pandan beach
I fall in love with this beach when driving towards it. The whole scenery at that moment is so BLUE! Pandan beach is consider the furthest beach, which is quite deep into Lundu. It's really worth the time to drive till there.
Look at my pictures below. You sure love it. Do remember to try on the fresh coconut there. It's so refreshing and sweet. Get the biggest they have at RM4.
3. Retreat Training Center
The best accommodation to be found at Lundu is at Retreat!
Retreat is just slightly further a bit from Siar Beach Resort.
The building consists of conference room, penthouse and more rooms..
Swimming at the Retreats
Retreats training area
Comfy chalets
Retreats beach area
3. Sematan town
It's a small but peaceful town around 20 minutes driving distance away from Lundu town.
Right in front of the shoplots is the jetty.
4. Sematan Palm Beach Resort
It's the best resort in Sematan and the price is quite affordable. This resort has great swimming pool that just newly built around the end of 2010. Breakfast and Dinner is included in the room rate. Their meals are delicious. Definitely worth the price paid.
I have rented a chalet for 4 persons as in the picture. This chalet is just by the poolside.
Internal layout of the chalet. It really gives a cozy feel. Thumbs up!
Clean and neat bedroom at the upper floor
A view looking out from the top deck.
Swimming pool by the seaside
A weird stuff saw in the early of the morning before heading for breakfast.
Food... Food .. Food.. They serve tasty breakfast and dinner!
If you are visiting Sematan, do try to book a room at palm beach resort. :D
