Terengganu is one of the Malaysian states which is endowed with a wealth of

charming and refreshing natural landscapes. Terengganu has beaches, exotic islands,
lush virgin tropical jungle, quaint fishing villages, dazzling waterfalls and many, many
more ! Miles and miles of white sandy beaches and crystal clear water stretches
throughout its 244km coastline, extending from Besut in the north to Kemaman in the
south. Terengganu islands are among the most picturesque and fascinating in the
country.One of the attractive place that the tourist can go is taman negara kenyir.

It spans over 260,000 hectares , fed by 30 rivers with 25 waterfalls and at least
25 known species of fish swimming in this man-made lake. The 340 islands in the lake
were once hilltops and highlands before the area was inundated by water. Kenyir Lake
on the map is just like a drop of water that splits into irregular drainage shape on the
ground, but turns into a big piece of jade or green stone with smooth surface when it
comes closer to you.c The unique fragrance from plants will cast your tiredness away
after 45 minutes drive from Kuala Terengganu. There are ways of exploring this
lake.Your journey should begin in either Gawi Jetty or Pengkalan Utama. Exploring by
boat is the most common and easiest way. Journey will begin right from the jetty.
These wooden houseboats will move during day time. Grey colour branches stand out
from the water. They were once branches of trees before water has introduced into this
area. Parasitic plants and birds resting on the branches bring surprises to the eyes.
During raining time, rain drops on the water, together with these branches both have
supplementing each other in adding to the mysterious of the lake. You also can go
fishing because there are many type of fish live in there.

For the adventurers, you can hike to Gunung Gagau inside Taman Negara, the
second highest mountain after Gunung Tahan in the National Park and you also can go
camping beside the waterfall.
