Dining at Bentong & Raub Resorts (23 Dec 2012)

After attended my friend's wedding dinner and the next day morning I woke up at 5:30 am for this trip, I felt a bit exhausted and my eyes' dark circles are getting deeper and deeper :( I need more sleep and rest, especially recently spent a lot effort and time on designing my past travel trips' photobooks... I really miss my solo trip in Paris now...

OK, back to the topic...The main focus on this trip is visiting and dining at the Valley Resort 山寨谷 in Bentong and Ming He Yuan 明河园 Resort in Raub. We had our lunch at Valley Resort 山寨谷 and dinner at Ming He Yuan Resort 明河园. Valley Resort 山寨谷 is located inside the forest, visitors can do fishing and barbecue here. While the resort at Ming He Yuan 明河园 is more modernized, the guests can do spa here too. I prefer the environment at Ming He Yuan 明河园, maybe because of the flowers and gardens there made me felt very relaxed :P

A picture worth a thousand words, so I can save my words now...

After breakfast at Bentong, we went to the morning market nearby
Passed by a road side stall that was selling very huge jackfruit
A lot of bees were flying around the huge jackfruit
