Jeju Hallasan Horse Ranch


Jeju Horse Ranch

Getting down from Ilchulbong Sunrise Peak, we proceed to Songup Folk Village. We passed by Hallasan foothill horse ranch on the way to Songup Folk Village.

The tourist guide stopped the car for us to rest for a while. Although the field was wide and green but there wasn’t any horse in the field.


Jeju Horses

Besides the stone statue, horse is also the symbol of Jeju Island. Jeju Island is a volcanic island. The soil is fertile and suitable for grass growth. This is an advantage for Jeju Island to be a natural horse ranch.

There are two species of horses in Jeju Island. They are Jeju Horse and Halla Horse (The crossbred of Jeju Horse and thoroughbred). Jeju Horses are bred as food and Halla Horses are used for horse racing.


Jeju Horses

While traveling in Jeju Island, you can enjoy horse meat. The price of horse meat is around 20 thousand Won to 30 thousand Won for a person.

In case you don't like to eat horse meat, you can visit the racecourse for horse riding or watching horse racing.

Trengganu Merang Beach


Merang Beach

Merang Beach is located at 30 km north of Kuala Trengganu. The cool breeze and sandy beach of Merang Beach are truly fascinated.

After leaving Irama Beach, we continued our journey to Kuala Trengganu. On the way, we dropped by Kuala Besut police station to enquire the route to Kuala Trengganu.

We didn't take any photo at Kuala Besut because we were in a hurry. If not, I would like to share with you.


Merang Beach

In case you are tired after traveling, take a rest at Merang Beach to enjoy the amazing scenery. Besides affordable homestay, there are star resorts around Merang. Either to stay overnight at Merang or proceed your trip, you can decide as you like.

Merang is the gateway to Bidong Island, Redang Island and Lang Tengah Island. Some tourists stay a night at Merang before taking a boat ride to their destinations the next morning.

Malacca Macau Gallery


Macau Gallery

I had been to Macau Gallery before my Macau trip in early July.

Macau Gallery is located at Bukit Peringgit in Malacca. The buildings near to Macau Gallery are residence of VIPs and Malacca government senior officials.


Macau Gallery

Macau Gallery was closed on that day. The only thing I could do is to take some photos outside the gallery. I have no idea about the exhibits in the gallery.

Macau Gallery

Malacca government plans to make that area as an International Gallery Centre. What a pity, Malacca government is rather slow in this project.

Besides Macau Gallery, Cuban Gallery and Institute of the Arts Melaka are also available at Bukit Peringgit. Both of Cuban Gallery and Macau Gallery were established in 2007 and 2009 respectively. Do not know the set-up date of the Art Institute of Malacca.

Johor Pengerang Ostrich Farm


Pengerang Ostrich Farm

During our trip to Pengerang we visited the ostrich farm which is located at Jalan Teluk Ramunia.

It was already dusk when we arrived at the ostrich farm. We didn't enter the ostrich farm because it was going to close soon. That's why I had no chance to take any photo of ostrich to share with you.


Pengerang Ostrich Farm

This newly hatched little ostrich was put in a glass case for visitors to view and take pictures.

Pengerang Ostrich Farm

These cute lampshades were made with ostrich eggs. You can buy some lampshades and keep as souvenirs.
