Traveling Tips

Arriving by train from anyone – is another world outside our homes there, with a regular rhythm, as a “scene” of the trip was, and the construction of the emotional conflicts and the climax with the spices. All without is that I packed the chair or afraid to move traffic jams and bad weather.

So I felt incomplete when I visit a country without attempting a rail system there.

Especially when I visited Malaysia, after the train an important role. It was built by the British, the capital of the traffic to their deaths in the construction of freeways was destroyed by the state. It is one of the most convenient way to travel from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore and Butterworth (Penang) for remote Bangkok, Thailand.

But there is a path that have not thought about or even forgotten, especially by the trampling of the world. In other words, the way to the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

On the way there are many possible effects, such as Cherating, Kota Bahru, Kuantan and islands such as Pulau Redang, Pulau Tioman and Iceland to stop. On the way, you can be left in the Garden State and many ecotourism activities such as hiking, trekking, bird watching, fishing and others.

East Coast rail line began in despair (in Negeri Sembilan) and completely filled to the brim (Kelantan). The state of Kelantan is bordered on the northern tip of Peninsular Malaysia and Thailand. Title was “The Train of the Jungle” its way through dense tropical forests, especially in Gua Musang, Kelantan small town in the south of the tip.

There are two types of trips into the jungle to train. The first of these, you can mount a series of expression despair convenient transportation, non-stop, direct from Kuala Lumpur or Singapore. Unfortunately, there are so Seat61 place only one channel provided Musang Gua – packed on a sunny day, not the circuit. 14 or 15 (Ekspress Light of the East).

Second, you can create a number of production cars with only one grade level equivalent of business class in Indonesia. Always classic locomotive pulled the series stops at almost all stations. If you are taking the train from the edge or foundations Bharu (Kota Bahru), most probably meet with the residents wear products are sold at the station of Musang Gua. Interesting, is not it?

The series is in the frustration of traffic before to Kuala Lumpur or Singapore expressed. Regular show should have changed trains in despair. Despite a series of regularly eat more time to be angry, but offers a much more colorful.

This trip can be divided into several sections, if we move away from Kuala Lumpur on board:

Kuala Lumpur – Harassment
All trains, express and make regular on the show through the trouble of a station with good facilities. Less than 24 hours accommodation and food here.

Malaise – Jerantut / Mela
If you take a regular series, then you can stop at Jerantut Mela whether to continue or stop the Garden State. Between boredom and Jerantut and Mela, the scenery of palm oil and rubber is dominated. You can also stop in Kuantan Mentakab.

Jerantut – Gua Musang
Musanga Gua is a town near the border of the state of Kelantan and Pahang. Here is the next big stop. The view from these cities is probably the most interesting because it shares the forest road.

Musang guide – filled to the brim
It was downhill from Gua Musanga the edge, the edge map. A part of this trip is also interesting because it dominates the landscape of limestone, including Gua Musanga season could see limestone cliffs. For a time, Kota Bahru (Bharu station called foundations) to stop the city that many museums, temples and beaches.

After the surprise, if you want to continue the journey by train, you can go abroad in order to cross the river Kolok, a border town in Thailand, to the rail network in Bangkok, Thailand connected. Fun!
