Lembing

I don’t usually like to write a travelogue, talking about where we go first and what’s next. It is rather mundane and uninteresting. I would usually lump all the nice pictures from the place and show people; hoping that each picture will tell a thousand words.

But the rules do not apply here, Sungai Lembing is special. Sungai Lembing is not only about picturesque views and wonderfully majestic Pelangi waterfall. It is not just the famous gas station in the middle of the town or the history tin mining. It is more than that.

May be I was being exaggeratingly romantic now but I think Lembing is an attitude in itself, a small town overflowing with eccentricities and romanticism. Qualities that rarely can be seen anywhere else. May be its glorious past with sudden fall from grace sculpted the way the town feels now. The hustle and bustle of the town in yesteryears had changed to simpler and shadier lifestyle. That’s the romantic part of the town, it gets older gracefully. It skins off the edginess of youth and adds vibrancy of antiquity.

Enough of being romantic and shady. Enjoy the pictures I took and lomofied. For more visit my facebook
