During 2009, I manage to visit the Muka head light tower, a place which I heard a long time ago. My father used to tell me about this place, but so far don’t have a chance to visit until last year.
The path to muka head is same opening path as Pantai Kerachut, as you can see, Pantai kerachut and Tekuk Kampi are on the left, while Sg.Tukun, Titian Kanopi, Teluk Aling, Teluk Duyung, and Rumah Api Muka Head (Light House)
On the journey to muka head, we pass by Teluk Aling, which is some USM (University Sains Malaysia)’s research center, and we stop by to have some photo shooting.
This is the trip organizer, NC Lee, he always likes to do some funny thing and make we all laugh!
Behind NC Lee is Mei Mei! See, NC makes her laugh already!
And this is Hooi Hooi, Olympus holder!
And this is Hooi Hooi’s pet
Ops… again, some monkey jump! I wonder why people like to do this! Seem like very…
We stop at by Monkey Beach (Teluk Duyung) a while; we have some meal, bee hoon, and nasi lemak, and some snake. After rest, we on the way to the Light Tower… It takes some distance there, and this short distance really takes a lot of our energy… maybe we stop too long at Monkey Beach already, and no more energy to hike!
According to the keeper there, this building is build at year 1809.
After I see the stone inside, I feel like a bit scare when see on top of the tower, does all this stone stable enough? Some more so many years already!
The view on top of the light tower is really nice, some more the air is freezing.
This is how the look inside the tower
The Light Tower is kind of strong. When I came down, approximately 10 to 15 people were still up there, and another group of people was going up again.
Muka Head Light Tower is a nice place to visit, after we finish the visit, we went down to Monkey Beach, and manage to bargain with the fisherman over there to fetch us back with their boat without hike back again, cost us RM30 per trip! (6 person)
Woo… Never been to a light tower before. And the tower is in the house?
