#TRAVEL WITH ME : GAHARU TEA VALLEY, GOPENG

GAHARU - commonly known as Agarwood and also called Eaglewood, Aloeswood, ChenXiang, (沉香), Jin-koh (沈香), or Oud (عود) in different countries, has many beneficial and healing properties. Possessing such an array of valuable qualities, Gaharu has played a vast and significant role in Middle Eastern, Chinese and Ayurvedic cultures and the earliest documented use of Agarwood was in 600 AD but its existence in the medicinal world goes way beyond these records. 


Welcome to the HOGA Experience at Gaharu Tea Valley Gopeng (務邊沉香山茶園).

Van arrived within 5 minutes. We then hop in and start our adventure. The van's air-cond is definitely cooling enough to bring the heat off you.  


The journey started and along the way we saw Gaharu Tree growing everywhere while the driver drove up the hill. Our first spot - Viewing Stage.

Stone Viewing Deck
From breathtaking landscapes to cascading hillside panorama, you can view it all here. Let your every sense be encapsulated at Gaharu Tea Valley, Gopeng.




Walk up the first floor from the Stone View Deck, you will see a huge 3D painting. During my visit, only one painting is ready for photo taking. Others, are still in progress.

We then hop on back to the van and proceed to the second point - Mini Zoo. Once arrived, we are welcomed by the assistant who explain to us the proper way of touching the Gaharu tree when taking pictures. Most of the trees are painted with animal figures by a famous artist, Eric Lai.







Ok, that's bad can!







After walking around to take pictures, we proceed to the final point - Lover Park .












Done with picture taking, we hop into the van and went down the hill. 

Here comes the van, ya'll!


After 5 minutes ride, we are finally back to the Main Area. Before leaving, we had some Hoga Ice cream (RM 2.00 each) and drinks (RM 3.00 per bottle).

#DINEWITHME: THE PENTHOUSE RESTAURANT & WINE BAR | SS15, SUBANG JAYA (KL)

Whooppsss...I just had my dinner!  What am I doing here? Come on, it's Friday! Let's chill a 'lil - Dinner extended. To be frank, I don't have much time to spend around ever since I've joined an award-winning agency few months ago. Life's pretty hectic everyday, with extreme workload and countless days of overtime.  And just because I have relocated myself to another area, my hangout place changes too. What makes the best option would be the one nearest to my office, with less traffic congestion.  Thanks to my bunch of friends whom always put me on a priority, they make the effort to come to a meeting point near me instead.  I was brought to this restaurant the other day by my friends and I found it quite a waste not to share such an interesting place with all of you.  Let me introduce you to -  THE PENTHOUSE RESTAURANT & WINE BAR. Upon walking in, I was amazed by their simple yet welcoming ambiance. I was ushered in by rows of wine displ...

#DINEWITHME: YUK SOU HIN | WEIL HOTEL (IPOH)

Done with my busy schedules, I finally have the time to sit down and blog about my dining experience at YUK SOU HIN @ WEIL HOTEL (IPOH) which took place about two months ago.  I was being invited by the hotel's PR Team at the first place to drop by and review the dim sum which was spearheaded by their   Hong Kong Master Chef, Mr. Chung Ho Shi but unfortunately I'm unable to attend. Later after that, I visited the restaurant with my mum when I dropped by in Ipoh the other day.  It was a busy morning. We went to the restaurant around 11am without any advance reservation, and it took us about 25 minutes to settle down with a table.  The restaurant was packed with customers that day, due to Public Holiday.  Not my first dining experience at Weil Hotel,  YUK SOU HIN  is the final restaurant to wrap up my adventure at this new hotel besides than  THE DECK  and  TIFFIN .  Bored while waiting, I started to explore around and tappin...
