Relangzhou, I don’t want to go there when I hear this name in the summer. However, Relangzhou is by the sea. The sea water there is blue, very clear and light blue. That place is really beautiful. It would be great if I could have a house by the sea. Facing the Ocean, Spring and Blossom. .

In the northeastern part of the Malay Peninsula, there are several famous islands: Redang Island, Perhentian Island and Cotton Island, etc. They are usually accessible by boat from Terengganu. The first island we went to was Pulau Pamukkale. We made the mistake of flying to Kota Bharu (the air tickets are cheap), and then we went all the way to Pamukkale Pier Marang to take a boat there. Cotton Island (pulau

kapas) is 10 kilometers off the coast of Terengganu, about 2.5 kilometers long and 1 kilometer wide. There is also a gem island nearby. The beach on Cotton Island is still good, but there are few tourists. There are only a few foreigners on the island, and then there are our group of passers-by. This is a place to be in a daze, and look at the sea when you are lonely. Food and accommodation are not very convenient on Cotton Island. There are only one or two accommodations. Some recreational facilities seem to have been abandoned due to disrepair. The key point is that I originally thought that I could find a chartered boat on Cotton Island to go directly to Redang Island, but I didn’t ask if the boat could be abandoned. Made plans to stay here for one night. You can also book a set meal on Cotton Island.

To go to Redang Island, we booked a package on Taobao, which included three days and two nights, including food, accommodation and sailing. Counting from the pick-up and drop-off at the pier, I personally think this package is cheaper and more convenient, and is suitable for self-guided backpackers. of. A movie "Summer Tea" made an island famous, this is Redang Island. The azure blue sea and white sandy beach, the beauties from China, the sexy girls in bikinis, this is the memory that Redang Island gave me. Drinking coffee and lying on a lounge chair on the beach watching beauties in bikinis walking around, this kind of life is my favorite way. You can see turtles and sharks that can't eat people near Redang Island. Not far away, there is a more primitive Redang Island, which you can take a boat to.

Leave Redang Island and return to Terengganu to stay near Chinatown. Although the Chinatown in Terengganu is very short, it is the cleanest Chinatown I have seen in Southeast Asia.

On May Day this year, we returned from the Maldives and passed through Malaysia for another three days. We originally chose Kuching (the capital of Sarawak) in East Malaysia, but we remembered the strict customs inspection system between East and West Malaysia. , fearing that I would not be able to pass the transit visa to East Malaysia, I switched to Arau and Langkawi in West Malaysia. Before going to Arau, I knew very little about this place. I only knew that it was a transit point for some tourists going to Langkawi. Because Langkawi is a famous island in Malaysia, it is under the jurisdiction of Kedah state. After buying a flight ticket from Kuala Lumpur to Arau, I did some simple research on the city and found that it still has quite a history. Arau is the capital of Kedah state. Arau is the Chinese name. In Malaysian, it is called Alor Serah. Serah is the name of a tree. Arau is also the hometown of Malaysia’s first and fourth prime ministers. In particular, the fourth prime minister, Mahathir Mohamad, came from a commoner and was a legendary prime minister. He was once a vendor in the Rab market in Arau. , we can still see his photos hanging in Rab Market. Kedah is a country with a long history in Malaysia (Malaysia has been divided into several small countries in history), and there is still a royal palace left in Arau. There is a 165-meter-tall telecommunications tower in the city of Arau. This communications tower, ranked 19th in the world, is the symbol of Arau. We live near it. Chinatown, Rab Market, the Royal Palace and the Mosque are all around it, and it is enough to spend a day wandering around. There are many food stalls near the Chinatown in Arau, and there are many kinds of delicacies, which surprises the delicious wife. Its Bak Kut Teh is also different from the Bak Kut Teh in other places. It is dry Bak Kut Teh.

Take a taxi to Kedah Pier early the next day (Aarau taxis run at fixed places and can only be called by appointment, not the kind that just wave you to). The boat to Langkawi is usually one There is one flight every hour, it takes about 2 hours, and the place to go ashore is Gua Town, where the eagle is. After returning from the sack, we were already numb to the sea. After taking photos with the eagle in Kuah Town, we continued to take a taxi to the beach in Langkawi. We chose Cenang Beach, which is also relatively close to the airport. The driver on the bus was selling us a route with several scenic spots in one day, and the price was more than 200 ringgit. It seems that the commercialization of Langkawi is really expensive as we heard before. Across the road from Pantai Cenang, we discovered an idyllic scene and turned our beach trip in Langkawi into an idyllic one. This is a rice field museum. There are old cows and pavilions in the vast countryside. We lay lazily on the pavilion to hide from the sun. There is a fast food restaurant nearby where locals eat, and the price is very cheap. A full meal for two people costs less than MYR 20. We went to Cenang Beach for a stroll in the afternoon. The hotel environment here is still good, but I heard that the room prices are not cheap.

It only takes ten minutes to take a taxi from Cenang Beach to the airport. Langkawi Airport is not big, but it is an international airport. It has domestic flights to China, but the price is expensive.
