Kellie’s Castle – The unfinished mystery

/

Kellie’s Castle – The unfinished mystery Picture: AM @ Kellie’s Castle   What is this place..? It’s fascinating to learn about William Kellie-Smith and his unfinished castle in Malaysia, known as Kellie’s Castle. The story of how he brought craftsmen from Madras to build the castle and their request to build a temple in return is a testament to the multicultural history of the region. The statue of a Scottish man in front of the Murugan temple is a unique blend of cultures. If you have more questions or would like to know more about Kellie’s Castle or its history, feel free to ask! It’s sad that William Kellie-Smith didn’t get to see his mansion completed as he died at the age of 56 due to phenumonia, but it’s also heartening to know that Kellie’s Castle has become a popular tourist attraction in Perak, Malaysia. The history and unique architecture of the castle must be a significant draw for visitors. If you have any more information or questions about Kellie’s Castle or any other topic, feel free to share or ask!

Exploring the Beauty of Resort World Langkawi

/

Picture: The breath taking view of resort. Arun Mathai with my apple boy. Resorts World Langkawi is a standard-quality accommodation option in Langkawi. One important consideration is choosing between a sea view or a standard room in advance, as they come with different rates. Breakfast is included, which may seem expensive, but it’s preferable as there aren’t many good nearby options. The highlight of this resort is its breathtaking view and ambiance.  📌The infinity pool offers a breathtaking view, seemingly connecting to the sea and mountains. 📌A small children’s play area is an added bonus for family tourists. 📌The property area is spacious, so guests won’t feel congested. 📌The only downside is the weekend surcharge. 📌RWL got different category rooms like garden view, SEA view and both of It’s premium too. Normal will be Cheaper but better take premium of SEA view.

Langkawi Flight Travel – Things to know

/

If you are visiting Malaysia and you are a nature or water or natural scenery lover, I would say you must visit Langkawi. In my coming vlogs you can see details of each place one by one. Here I would like to take you through some quick and super useful guidance for your trip to Langkawi.   How to reach..? Basically two options available for you to travel to Langkawi and that is flight and by ferry. Ferry I won’t suggest to family or people who are not interested to spend much time on traveling as you need to travel around 7 hours in bus (450-500 KMS) to reach the ferry service. And traveling in ferry might give you nausea feeling as it’s shaking. So better book flight in advance which you can get at rate of 1400-2000 INR onwards (15$+). Or else visiting Penang and taking ferry is a worth option for explorers. MD Note The Point 📌In order to travel to Langkawi you need to book the same flight which you booked from your country to Malaysia. Example: if you are traveling from India in Airasia, book the same to Langkawi too to avoid changing airport. Catch the same airport.

Airasia – Travel Review

/

Airasia – Real Travel Experience So we are in ‘Airasia’. While entering the flight itself, there will be gorgeous beautiful ladies & handsome gents will be waiting to greet us with a big smile. Pros & Cons📌 *Most flights with a lot of seats. *We have often seen flights which looks like absolutely new. *Flight take-off and landing all without causing us any trouble. *All food and beverages are available (not free due to budget flight). *Although I like the flight a lot, when my family came to travel, they had some difficulty in stretching their legs, especially when I saw my mother with knee pain trying to adjust without saying openly to me. The moment I realized that the leg space was very limited. *There will be no song or movie. This is because there are no facilities like TV screen in front of the seat. *Seat‌ could move slightly backward. In short, there is no chance of having a semi-sleeper style to sleep comfortably.
