Ulu Bendul

Ulu Bendul is situated between Senawang and Kuala Pilah. A place to relax by the river or having a picnic or splashing water or nature call..
I was there just a short stop on my way to Kuala Lumpur. So I didn't really explore around. This river is at the bottom of a hill called Gunung Angsi. I was on the top of this hill few years back. Will try to post some photos and my 1 cents worth on the way up the hill.
Looking at the river remind me of my younger days at Air Panas river at Gunung Ledang in Johor. How I enjoy swimming in the river and at times watching the a piece of shit swimming in front of me following the river current. While swimming in the river I can't imagine how much of the water I have swallowed. ugh...

Kg Air Itam in Negeri Sembilan

On the back to my wife home town..

Above is a trunk road off my destination. The trunk road follows the hill. Goes up and down. And it is narrow too. As I have driven on this road night. It is quite scary.


Oil palm plantation next to the road. Oil palm currently is the largest plantation in Malaysia. In the photo the planted not long ago. Fruits from it.. wait lor.. a few more years for harvesting.


Another view of the truck road leads to the horizon.


A rubber plantation. This was taken sometime in the afternoon. Not one soul is found in this plantation.

Above is the kampung kind of environment as oppose to the city which is colourful. Life jungle in kampung and concrete jungle in the city. Fresh air compare to exhaust air. So which is the choice of retirement?
