From Sauk To Syamille AgroFarm And Back To Ipoh.

While we were enjoying our lunch at the restaurant in Sauk, we were told that there is an Agro Farm nearby where we can visit. It was on the way back to Ipoh. Friend B told us to keep a sharp look out for the signboard on the right side of the road. Hopefully, we won't miss it.
 Here it is - Syamille Agro Farm Sdn. Bhd.
 We have to drive on a narrow path and we almost wanted to turn back. In a short while we saw the entrance to the Agro Farm.
This was the first thing that caught my attention. Jack fruits on a Jack fruit tree! Just look at the fruits touching the ground. They were wrapped and supported by some sort of straw.
 Next to the Jack fruit tree is this unique wooden building.
 It looks like a classroom for religious teaching. 
 There are chalets and greenery all around.
 A very quiet place surrounded with fruit trees and plants.
 Resting place in front of chalets.
 Fish pond fed with running water from the stream besides the restaurant.
 Restaurant next to the stream.
 An enclosure for deers (rusa in Malay).
This is the only active one. 
 The others were feeding and some were resting under the shade.
 More Jack fruits on the tree next to the deer's enclosure.
 Notice says - No feeding of deer. (Rusa in Malay).
 Beautiful frangipani flowers near the fish pond.

Stingless Bee Farm.
Beehives scattered under the shade of coconut trees.
It was just a short visit. We didn't walk about the whole place because the weather was too hot.
Back into the car and back on the highway again.
There was not much traffic on the road.
It was a nice, leisure drive all the way back to Ipoh.
All thanks to Friend B for driving us to Sauk, the Agro Farm and then back to Ipoh.
Near the toll booths. The Ixora plants seem to be doing very well. They are blooming beautifully in this hot weather.
Dear brothers (or sisters), is your life
full of difficulties and temptations?
Then be happy, for when the way is rough,
your patience has a chance to grow.
So let it grow, and don't try to squirm out of your problems.
For when your patience is finally in full bloom,
then you will be ready for anything,
strong in character, full and complete.
(James 1:2-4, TLB)

  11. A nice way to pass time. You and your friends are great explorers and got rewarded with beautiful scenery and food. Going into strange places for the first can be intimidating but returning home seems to always go faster.
    Beautiful Ixora bushes.
