Pantai Minyak Beku

In the morning after breakfast before we flew off from Sinai Airport back to KK in the afternoon on 13 September 2023, my SIL took us to some of the places frequented by locals and tourists.

Pantai Minyal Beku where I last visited in February 2013 (Read here) has undergone much improvement and upgrading.

At Dataran Penggaram of BP Town Centre where we visited the previous night, there is a sculpture of a pair of hands chiselling a rock. This is now a prominent landmark and symbol of Batu Pahat.

From Pantai Minyak Beku, we drove south for 2Km to reach Kampung Segenting, an old fishermen village.

This village is proliferated with many small Chinese temples. The most prominent one which attracted the bulk of the tourists is the Chong Long Gong Temple.
Chong Long Gong Temple.
The locals are never short of ideas to attract visitors. Some are drawn here to see this giant Araipama fish kept in a man-made pond next to the temple. It is sad that people who manage to touch it would be rewarded with good luck and fortune! How nice if life can indeed be turned around by such simple gesture :)
The Lover's Bridge, another attraction thronged by many visitors.
Caught a glimpse of Pulau Sialu from Kampung Segenting. This tiny island with a lighthouse is just a mere 300m from the nearest main land coastline.
