1+: close to my heart. as always. 8:47:00 PM

note: all pictures shown below are taken from Shutterhack
as these are not my properties T_T, I did not use photobucket to resize it, please click on pictures for a better view.

wasn't really plan to blog until this weekend, but

random blog hopping brings me these.

feeling familiar?

and warm? =)

Yes it is China Town aka Kampung Cina in Terengganu!

used to stay there for 13 years before moving to my current home. My grandpa, grandma, aunt and family still stay there though.

I highly suspect this photo was taken right in front of my great great grandpa's house haha.

This is 和安宫. A temple right opposite my mom's restaurant.
used to go there a lot, like seriously, before my exams, cny, before flying to perth, insertwheneverIneedGod'shelp

This aunty looks quite familiar too haha I'm sure I've seen her before back in kt.

Lion dancers from chws. performing in china town too.
Yes! the lion dancers there are incredibly young but skillful.

few of the chinese restaurants in china town. The one on the right, Golden Dragon Restaurant is quite famous among the locals, except my family haha.
I bet Miss Sarah went there every weekend! and (according to her) bumped into almost the same person every time.

evening view of china town. the white slightly dirty looking building at the end of the street is where I used to live!!!
nostalgiaaaaaaaaaa.....

there is this Sungai Terengganu behind China Town. (am I right am I right?)
almost every old house has this area protruding towards the river, built only using woods.
perfect fishing spot!
I used to fish with my dad and coussies behind our neighbour's house.

well, kt is not all about China Town.

we have Sultan Mizan Stadium, built for SUKMA TERENGGANU XII 2008.
It wasn't even completed when I left early feb this year hng!

Sultan Mahmud Bridge.
It's not really that long but it means a lot to me 'cause this is the usual route my dad drove me to airport.
never knew that it can look so pretty.

Crystal Mosque of Terengganu.
I haven't even been there before hmm.
heard that it's mini sized?

Monsoon Cup Terengganu. held annually?
to be frank, I don't really understand y terengganu is their choice to held an international sailing match haha.

and lastly,

titled "Jumping into a new dimension"
simply hearts this.

There are a lot more in Mr.Shutterhack's flicker page, well if you are interested.

Thanks Mr.Shutterhack, you discover another side of my lovely hometown, and I'm loving it more now =)

anyway, I'm homesick now. hugs, anyone?
