 After night spent in train Singapore-Kota Bharu we arrived in the morning to Kota. First minutes in Kota and we knew it that we are not in Europe. Because north part of Malaysia is populated mainly by Muslim , women wearing >!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!> is common view.

 What we saw underwater was remarkable. Different species of fishes and corals.. water was so clear I can say it was shock for us.

 Typical Malaysian shop. Every item in Asia must be packed in plastic bag, definitely they love plastic bags (even Pepsi is sold in plastic bags)

 Rivers in many situation is only option to reach remote places in short time. It is popular kind of transportation among tourist and jungle people.

  First meters in jungle and we learnt that jungle trekking is not easy walk. |
  N.P. Taman Negara one of the biggest national park in Malaysian Peninsula. It is refugee for 300 species of birds, innumerable species of insects and plants. It is hard to believe that so many species live in such jungle when you walk through tropical forest you are happy when you see snake or something different than leeches. Dense vegetation is an excellent hide for animals.

   Green , brown and black are only colors visible in jungle. But leaf shape diversity is amazing. Target for plants is only one - collect sun rays in most effective way..

Our trips 
Polski | English
Our first visit in Asia and very special because we traveled with 1.5 years old Alicja . We did not know what we can expect, we only knew that it will be hot and quite exotic but what more? We took into account that we will travel with children and we should but in the same time we planed our trip to be attractive for older part of the team. We selected two destinations Malay jungle and tropical islands what was completely enough for two weeks vacation. ; "Image")
