Sg.Lembing Kuantan, Pahang Malaysia PART2 ~ The Rainbow Fall (马来西亚彭亨，林明彩虹瀑布）

The normally deserted town comes alive during weekends when tourists pour in for a day trip to trek up the scenic  Rainbow Waterfall, where, true to its name, a rainbow can be seen stretched over the cascading waters during morning hours about 10a.m.

Visitors have to use a four-wheel-drive vehicle, which can be arranged for in town (A rainbow breakfast set is included: Natural mineral water noodles  & 3+1 Milo). After an hour’s drive, it takes another 45 minutes of trekking to reach the waterfall. 

Preparation needed:  A pair of antislip & waterproof rubber shoe, waterproof bag,  tower, drinking water & etc. 

清晨5:30am大伙就戴上简单装备 ~ 防滑朔胶包鞋，防水袋（过河必备品），水瓶，面巾（当然少不了照相机）摸黑登上四人驱动车从咱们投宿的林明河畔度假村出发前往镇上唯一的小贩中心用过早餐后就开始咱们的彩虹瀑布半日游。

环境清幽，设备齐全的，林明河畔度假村。

镇上唯一的小贩中心，只有在度假村业者通知下或假日才会提早在清晨开市。一些业主平常天是都在Kuantan市营业，只有在周末或假日才回到家乡营业。不论是去看日出或彩虹瀑布， 游客们都会在清晨5:30am 集聚在这里用过早餐后再出发。就是说平常天到这里登山的游客最好自备早餐。

The only food court in the Town（5:30am)。 Business hour is depending on tourist crowd and subject to hotel operators notification.

车子在 20km 崎岖的森林路上摇晃不定行驶了40分钟来到了河边，接下来的行程就必须过河再步行45分钟才可抵达瀑布区。

瀑布在望，大伙赶紧加快脚步必须在10点之前抵达瀑布脚下，因为彩虹会在出10点正出现，然后会随着太阳的升起而往水面消失（全景历时大约1/2小时）

团费包括用山泉水炮制的3+1 Milo 和泡面。

彩虹瀑布的确是一个让那些在钢骨水泥森林生活的人（都会人）回归大自然，疏解压力的好景点。在此要特别提醒游客们，如果您在山中看到任何美丽的水晶岩石，木块等一切天然物品，记得要物归原地，千万不可占为己有，带出山区。切记！

Sungai Lembing, Kuantan, Pahang Malaysia. (A Town of Memories) PART1 （林明 ,关丹马来西亚）

Sg.Lembing is located about 42 km northwest of Kuantan, Pahang Malaysia. Sungai Lembing is an underground tin mine town developed and set up by the British in 1880s with infrastructure such as roads, electricity, schools, bungalows, an office, warehouse, stores and even a hospital.  Sungai Lembing in fact boasted itself is having the second richest tin deposit in the world and the biggest underground tin mine in the world during their heyday with the total tunnel length of 322 km and the depths of its subterranean tunnels between 610 m and 700 m, it was once the richest town in Pahang, known as El Dorado of the East.

The town straddles the river of  Sg.Kenau, the main street on the right bank is split by an avenue of majestic trees. Many of the wooden shoplots are closed and people are moving away after the pit mines were closed in 1986 due to high operational cost and world tin price collapsed. The town was then left forgotten, its glory years merely a distant memory, until it was developed as a tourist attraction in year 2003 with its rich natural and cultural resources.

十八丁~老港渔村（KUALA SANGGA, KUALA SEPETANG, PERAK)

老港渔村是一个超过100年历史的扑素及相当落莫的渔村。一个到今天仍然没有水电供应，村民只能靠雨水和发电机过日子的渔村。

这码头可说是村里最漂亮的建筑物

老港人文地图。

村民的日常生活用水都是以大小水桶或水缸儲存雨水而，食水則通過漁船由內陸運載過來。至於電流供應目前則依賴自備發電機。

渔村位于Sungai Sangga Besar 河口，由十八丁内陆坐渔船到老港，约需约40分钟。基于交通上的不便，设施的不足及随着渔民谋生困难，加上年轻一代想到外创一番事业，导致该渔村的人口越来越少。今天全村的人口只有两百多人，住户少过五十户。

村民都是以捕鱼，养鱼，养蛤討海為生。没有出海的婦女或老人就把捕獲體形較小的軟殼蝦晒成蝦米出售，賺取一些錢幫補家用。這裡無添加防腐劑色素的老港蝦米，成品很搶手。老港一帶的海域也是鮮蚶盛產地。

水上渔排随处可见。

村内有一间庙和校舍陈旧的华小即是培智国民型华小，涨潮时还会面对淹水问题。该校目前学生29名，教师7位。

老港渔村扑素，宁静的环境，的确是个看海，减压，修心养性的好去处。
