Everyone have their own unforgettable moment, including me. I have many unforgettable moment. One of it is the moment I went to my grandparent’s house at Terengganu with my family a couple years ago. Terengganu is the place where nature embraces heritage. There are many wonders of Terengganu and many things to explore. Actually, my father did not plan to take us for a walk at there. But he did when my siblings persuade him to. Luckily, our persuasion was succeeding.
Before we depart to my grandparent’s house, we pack our stuff first as usual. I brought my hat and sunglasses along with me. My father always told us to minimize our stuff when we want to go to his hometown. He does not like so many bags in his car. However, I just brought along the unnecessary things as long as my bag has an empty space. The journey to go there took about six hours. On the journey, I saw plenty of palm oil trees, lake and greenery forests.
We arrived at our grandparent’s house in the evening. They greeted us with an open arm. After we had kept our stuff, my grandmother invite us to eat lompat tikam, che mek molek and kuih akok. My father really loves the kuih akok. I remembered that he always buy it in the fasting month. Then we take a walk along Batu Buruk beach at Kuala Terengganu. The beach has white sands and swaying casuarinas living behind the shore, like a loyal friend to the waves. I played kite with my siblings, riding a horse and soak my legs in the water at the seaside.

The next morning I went to Terengganu State Museum complex. The museum was acclaimed to be the largest museum in South East Asia. There are many century-old artefacts and artworks representing the state’s rich cultural and heritage. It houses the original Inscripted Stone of Terengganu, with religious decree inscription, which proves the acceptance of Islamic teachings in the state well before the rest of the peninsular.

In the evening, I went to Tengku Tengah Zahrah Mosque or more commonly called Floating Mosque. It has a unique design which is built on a floating platform, giving a floating feel from far away.

Combining both modern and Moorish architecture design, the mosque symbolizes the innovation and modernisation in the state.

The place was relaxing my mind and body. We brought our towels and spare cloths when going there. My family and I hiked the hill until the waterfall to get the best treat and view. The tired way to hike the hill was worth when we enjoying the clear and cold water.
Before we go back home, my family having time to drop in Payang Market to shopping. It is located by the Terengganu River.

At the market, we can get the best price if we know how to haggle. The market is quite big and jams. Many people came there. There are also have trishaw, also known as tricycle rickshaw or pedicab is undeniably one of the unique attractions in Terengganu. Most of the tourists will be amazed on the efforts of decoration put on the trishaws.
