Review 1:

This is my second time to travel more than 45 minutes for a breakfast. Of course, it was because we were going to visit Crocodile World that is located "around" Kota Tinggi. So it is still worth to enjoy this delicious Bak Kut Teh. However, all you need to prepare is time and time. First, after travel around 50minutes from Terbau Johor, then you need to wait until somebody has finished their breakfast then you got place for visit, then you need to wait around 30 minutes for cooking, of course. So, it is quite suitable for those who have spare time of around 2 hours to be "killed" before having this delicious Bak Kut Teh. But as you know, when you go out with best friends, two hours chit chat is just a peanut.

Review 2:

I must admit that my GPS and Google earth cannot recognize the above two addresses. Luckily, since this Crocodile World is still quite well-known (I guess), my GPS system already records it as one of the interesting place to be visited in Kota Tinggi. In Crocodile World, you need to pay another RM20.00 to buy three chicken so that you can see how crocodile eats chicken. The staff of Crocodile World took a long stick "touch" crocodiles so that crocodiles will react and move. I feel that the rest time for crocodiles had been interrupted when we were visiting them. So, it is good to visit crocodiles? If they simply sleep there, then some fun looks like missing. Are we human being really enjoy while seeing other suffer in nature? Hmmm... It will take time for me to think about this matter.

Overall Review:

It took quite long driving to Kiang Kee Bak Kut Teh and Crocodile World. So, it is better to have more than one car driving together for such long driving travel. The more the safer, and of course, the merrier.

Review Visit 1:

We have be informed by the local people about the Nanyang Natural Gallery has been closed since the Chinese New Year 2012. What a disappointment. Luckily, the Nanyang Fish Farm is just located few foot steps from the Nanyang Natural Gallery. So, we can still spend some time visiting the fishes of the farm.

Review Visit 2:

Activities: Visit fearless yet friendly monkeys; worship for health and luck; take some picture with 12 zodiac; take "fortune" bath; drink "fortune" water; In short, refresh and re-energize your luck. Is it true? I don't know. Simply having fun with these activities is more than enough.

Review Visit 3:

we have done and experienced lots of activities in Putuo Village, such as visiting Old Folks Home, turning Dharma Wheel, bathing Buddha, drink the consecrated water from Guanyin Hut, worship in Stupa and Thousand Hand Avalokitesvara Temple. Since there are still many interesting facilities under construction, we are looking forward to visit Putuo Village in the future.

 

Overall Review:

So far so good. Overall, we are very happy about the trip in Kulai that truly enriches our thoughts and spirits. It is always quite meaningful to discover what are the fascinating places around us.
