Gaharu Tea Valley & Lunch At Restoran Xin Qi Jia Fa, Lawan Kuda.

After visiting the Tin Mining Museum in Kampar, we drove back to Gopeng to visit the Gaharu Tea Valley. We played tourist guide to our friends who have not been to this place before.
 Welcome to Kampung Sungai Itek Gopeng.
This time we noticed some new additions to the place.
 All these are new displays.
 Descriptions are mostly written in Chinese.



Free Gaharu tea tasting for those interested.
We ate Gaharu ice cream before we left for lunch.

Here are some flowers photos for joining Floral Passions.
 Found this beautiful Roselle Hibiscus plant at the Kampar Tin Mining Museum.

 The fruit of the Roselle plant.
 Bright and beautiful Yellow Japanese Roses at Gaharu Tea Valley.
 These are single layer petals.
Spotted this bi-colour rose among all the yellow roses.

We brought our friends to Restoran Xin Ci Jia Fa, a first time for them.
 Deep Fried Tilapia fish with stinking beans and sweet sour sauce Thai style.
 Chicken cooked in yellow rice wine.

Total cost of lunch for 4 people MYR 75.80

"Watch out! Don't let my sudden coming catch you unawares;
don't let me find you living in careless ease,
carousing and drinking, and occupied with the
problems of this life, like all the rest of the world.
(Luke 21:34-35, The Living Bible-TLB)

  6. I have never seen a hibiscus like this, the way the center is! And what is the machine in picture 6? It almost looks like it fills ice-cream cones! This fish is very fancy. I love the peacock! But hope those are not real feathers.

    1. I think the machine has something to do with tea brewing. I didn't check out the feathers. Have a lovely day!

    1. When the beans go into our mouth, they are not stinky but it is only when they come out the other way, they stink!
