So let me bring you to the land of the turtles!

*Being a proud Terengganu-nese*

So what is there in K.T. (Kuala Terengganu)?

The most famous area in town is the Chinatown a.k.a Kampung Cina!

Because all the alleys are covered with different decorative to enhance the heritage of Terengganu.

Cool right?

So let me bring you to the first alley.

Turtle Alley

Many of the arts on the wall are by different artist and some from students from different colleges.

Pretty unique of what they use to create pictures of turtles.

Even the floor is covered with it.

See the little turtles by the side? Cute aren't they?

and thats the end of it.

They even create a storyline along the way, can read along as you walk.

Moving on to this place!

Peranakan Photo Gallery
Well, it's not an alley but there are some fascinating stuff to look at.

Don't know what's the story here, there was no one inside at all.

I bet there was something upstairs as well, but takut la, so I didn't went up :/

But got to see all these amazing old pictures of what Terengganu was like.

I didn't even know half of it.

Don't get that picture of them carrying a house.

CARRYING A HOUSE OKAY

Next stop would be..

Green Lane

But there was nothing there at all.

They said it was the first to kickstart the project of the alleys but ape bende pun x de.

But outside or if you walk further down the main road, you'll see this huge poster stick to the wall.

A lady pouring tea.

At first I didn't even know there this thing that exist until there was this aunty asked me where is it.

Was pretending that I'm not around here.

Well, technically I'm not from K.T so... haha

Moving on to the next lane that would be...

World Heritage Lane also called as the Seven Wonders Alley

the alley that actually pays tribute to the seven wonders of the world.

There are descriptions of each wonders of the world that are adorned to the wall on the left hand side of the alley.

Don't really get why they wanna do this but it's pretty cool anyway. Heh.

Well, we don't exactly have a lock bridge, but a lock alley will do perhaps?

Many come here to do what people would do on the bridge of Paris.

The shop next to it sells the locks for RM 10 each.

I bet if the lights are turn on at night, it would really be lovely.

Well, that's the end for this post now.

It's too long and there are still many alleys that I have not mention about.

Stay tune for Part 2!!!
