Antara lautan-lautan yang ada
dapatlah tengok teratai sikit2
We were a bit unlucky because it was not lotus season. August is the best month for sight seeing as the lake will be covered with bunga teratai :)
At the jetty, you can see a lot of lampan fish (if i was not mistaken). So korang bolehlah bagi makan kat ikan2 ni sebab diorang jual makanan ikan as cheap as RM2 per tupperware. awesome kan!
