Exploring A Mini Cave Or Tunnel In Gunung Lang, Ipoh

When the Gunung Lang Recreational Park was newly opened, I did get to visit but I didn't get to cross over to the other side of the lake. That first visit was in the year 2015 and if you are interested you can click here to see the photos.

I finally got the chance to cross over to the other side of the lake in May this year (2022) with hubby and his friends who came to visit from Kuala Lumpur. You can click here to visit the post and see some of beautiful lake view. The boat ride is very cheap especially for senior citizens.

In this post, I will share some photos of a small cave or short tunnel that we found on the other side of the lake. As we were walking around exploring the place, we came across this cave.

We saw some workers going through this opening below this little hill. Out of curiosity, we went nearer to explore.

Initially, I was quite reluctant to enter the cave but was later convinced to follow the others.

We were not the only curious ones. Others also were interested to investigate where this short tunnel leads to.

We too followed not knowing what to expect on the other side.

This is the roof of the cave or tunnel with lime deposits.

This is over our heads.

This is the entrance from the other side of the cave which faces a spacious unused land. Further on, there are some residential houses.

 Our curiosity satisfied as there was nothing of interest to see on the other side. Disappointed, we walked back into the cave from where we came from.

I saw the above at the lobby of a hotel in Penang.

There are many ways in which God works in our lives,

but it is the same God who does the work

in and through all of us who are his.

The Holy Spirit displays God's power through each of us

as a means of helping the entire church.

Lunch At Restoran Fan Chen Mei, Bercham

After our visit to Gunung Lang Recreational Park which I shared in yesterday's post (please click here if you are interested), we had lunch at Restoran Fan Chen Mei, 3a, Persiaran Medan Bercham 3, Taman Bercham Baru, Ipoh. We were the first customers and we occupied the biggest table. There were 7 of us. We were early and we have plenty of time to go through the menu. Our friends finally settled for the following dishes.

Ordered 2 types of soup. One is the double steamed coconut chicken soup. I didn't snap photo of this soup.

The 2nd soup is this spicy sour fish maw soup Foo Chow style.

Tofu with minced pork.

Stinky beans with minced pork and sambal belacan.

The beans were tender and everyone enjoyed this dish.

Steamed fish (I don't know the name of this fish).

Fried soy sauce prawns.

Everyone enjoyed the delicious lunch. Hubby's friend and family will be returning to this restaurant the next evening with his siblings.

The following photos were taken at the Gunung Lang Recreational Park.

There are many monkeys on the other side of the lake but this one stood out from the rest. It wasn't afraid of people and came quite close to us.

It was watching hubby and probably expecting food from hubby.

Good thing it didn't disturb us because we were not carrying any food items except for some bottle of drinking water.

It didn't mind when I pointed my phone camera in its direction.

Finally, it decided to give me a good pose by looking directly into the camera. Thank you, my little friend.

Taman Rekreasi Gunung Lang (Recreational Park), Jalan Kuala Kangsar, Ipoh

After leaving Restoran Mee Rebus Ramli, we took a leisure drive back Ipoh. The weather was very hot and it looked like it was going to rain looking at the grey cloud over us. Lately, it has been raining heavily in the late afternoon.

Driving along Jalan Kuala Kangsar.

Since we were passing by this way and we were not in a rush to get home, we decided to turn left to visit Gunung Lang Recreational Park.

Nice wide road and the place we wanted to visit is further down on the right.

Lovely shady place.

Landscaping and Recreation Department.

Some place to sit and relax, away from the hot sun.

On the right are the round concrete balls.

Limestone hills.

Children's playground.

Place for boarding for boat ride.

Since it was a weekday, there were very few visitors.

This time didn't get a chance to take boat over to the island.

Too hot for leisure stroll.

"A cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea."

So Elijah said, "Go and tell Ahab,

'Hitch up your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.'"
