During her earlier Taiping, Perak trip, she was chit chatting with her long time friend from Tourism Malaysia, Mr Hasrizal Hamka 👨🏽💼 about his amazing fun family trip at Perlis & recommended SiennyLovesDrawing to visit it. Then, this media invitation & now, she is back from Perlis with this long blog story here

Places To Visit & Things To Do
Sunrise @ Viewpoint Wang Kelian 🌄
It’s a famous must visit destination to enjoy panoramic sunrise 🌄 view from height of 303m above sea level 🌊, best to reach here before 6.30am whenever in Perlis
Why famous❓⁉️
Many visitors come for its carpet cloud ☁️ ☁️ phenomenon while enjoying the cool breezy atmosphere up here especially if the day before with heavy rain 🌧️☔
Hmm…Sad that during SiennyLovesDrawing’s recent visit, there was no rain the day before, so obviously no carpet cloud & instead she enjoyed the beautiful egg yolk sunrise 🟠🌄😍🤩💯
It’s nice to enjoy fresh air, wind breezy 🌬️ & quite chilly 🥶🆒 up there early morning, so suggest to bring a jacket 🧥 along, especially for kids & elderly 👧🏻👦🏻🧒🏻🧓🏻👵🏻👴🏻
SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻😍💕 really in love with the comfy nice fresh air 🌬️ & stunning sunrise 🌄 with the beautiful mountains layering just like a huge watercolour painting backdrop 🏞️ Many enjoyed capturing lots of OOTDs here 📹📸🤳
Yes ✅, chasing sunrise 🌄 means need to wake up superb early. Hmm… It’s absolutely worth it from SiennyLovesDrawing’s own experience, highly recommended ya 💯👍🏻
Ohh ya…If you’re lucky 🍀, you may hear 👂🏻 & then perhaps able to view 👀 from far the Dusky Eagle Owl, 1️⃣ of the largest owl species in Malaysia 🇲🇾, in fact a small family of them🦉🦉🦉 on the trees 🌳🌳 You will note some birders & photographers set up their camera to capture them too 😍🤩💯
Tips 📌 : She has learnt from her friend, Mr Peter Ong ~ A wild life photographer during this trip that the male Dusky Eagle Owl is with a small pitch of white fur on top of both his ears. Curious❓⁉️ Check out more via 📸🌐 https://www.instagram.com/p/CwfGdA1prYX/
SiennyLovesDrawing as a nature lover 👩🏻💚 would like to share a little advice here, if you’re sharing about any wild life, flora & fauna spotted during your travel journeys on social media platforms, please avoid sharing the exact location details ❌📍to keep them safe from poaching
Hmm…The driving journey is an adventure as the road from the foothills to Wang Kelian viewpoint has many dizzying twists & turns, SiennyLovesDrawing suggests to close your eyes for a nap 💤😴 or to consider to consume motion pills 💊 if really needed ya
At its foothill, visitors can opt for buggy services 🚍 with fee of RM3️⃣/pax for round trip to go up to the viewpoint. Young kids & elderly 🧒🏻👧🏻👦🏻🧓🏻👵🏻👴🏻 can still go up without a worry. Alternatively, all visitors can enjoy slow walking 🚶🏻♀️for about 150m to this viewpoint
🆓 Parking 🅿️, admission fee is required,
- Malaysian: Adult is RM2️⃣/pax & below 18 years old is RM1️⃣/pax
- Non Malaysia: Adult is RM5️⃣/pax & below 18 years old is RM2️⃣/pax
SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 has noted that there are some food stalls that serve Malaysian breakfast, so can enjoy hot bites or a hot cuppa ☕️ while indulge in beautiful panoramic views up high here at the viewpoint
However, she understands from the locals there only operates on weekends ya ☺️

According to Ms Nat 🙋🏻, the authority has expanded the car park area at foothills here
Guess what❓⁉️
The climbing routes at this Bukit Keteri ⛰️ were discovered by the Mammut Expedition to Malaysia in 2007. It absolutely worth the climb here up till to reach “Pantai Timur Window” & “Belly Button Window” which offers a scenic view 😍🤩 of Bukit Keteri & its surroundings. At the peak, climbers will be well-rewarded with panoramic views of the surrounding flat lands overlooking rice fields 🌾
Also it’s well known for its karst limestone formations, so many visitors are here for its cave exploring 🥾🔦 Its limestone tower is surrounded by rice fields 🌾 hence it offers a beautiful view from the top of this hill 😍🤩⛰️

Mat Rock Der Cafe
This seafood restaurant is located right in front beach 🏖️ & it has a wooden concept for both its exterior & interior. It’s a little low hence it’s hard for people to notice it
It serves a good variety 👍🏻 of fresh seafood dishes
Hmm…Apart from good foods served here, what really impressed SiennyLovesDrawing the most is they’ve creatively up cycled used washing machine as it’s hand washing sink for its restaurant guests, bravo 👏🏻💯👍🏻
