can be booked at the reception desk of each hotel, and the round-trip and insurance expenses are included in the tour fee. There is a shuttle bus to all hotels, and more than 2 people leave. The whole journey takes about 2 hours.

"Mangrove" is actually a primitive jungle area with a dark green appearance. It is said that you can see the red trunk only by taking a boat along a river called Simeng River, driving into the depths of the jungle and peeling off the skin of a thousand-year-old tree. Simeng River is 6.8 kilometers long, and the jungles on both sides are sparse. The farther away from the sea, the narrower the river. The local Malay indigenous boat sailed out to sea from a small river to catch fish and crabs. After we got on the motorboat, it sailed straight into the jungle. Along the way, I saw several simple wooden houses built by Malay fishermen in the jungle on the shore. About half an hour after the boat sailed

, the river became narrower obviously, the jungle became denser and denser, and a rare tropical animal, the silver langur, appeared from time to time among the trees. The boatman bumped the tree with the bow, and hit it several times, and the bark fell off, and the exposed trunk was really blood red. The silver langur seems to have seen many strange things about the action of the boat, and it still jumps on the tree for food as if nothing had happened. When the boat returned to the halfway, it was getting late, and the night gradually enveloped the jungle. Thousands of light spots flying up and down were hidden in the jungle. This is fireflies making friends. If two fireflies both fly over the jungle, it means that they have taken a fancy to each other and entered the "honeymoon period". Lovers can best appreciate the artistic conception at this time by exploring mangroves at night.

seaside Spa

The skills of local Malay masseurs are also excellent. They first exfoliate the guest's body with warm water soaked with herbs, and then apply tropical essential oil to the neck, back, waist, shoulders and arms. Finger pressure is the main manipulation, from top to bottom, the fingertip pressure gradually increases, followed by pecking, rubbing, rubbing, rubbing, chopping and patting. After massage, I feel comfortable, refreshed and carefree.
