Waterkant (Riverside Boulevard)

Reviewed By bhtiek - Batu Ferringhi, Malaysia

Astonishing to come across virtually an entire city made from wood that still constitutes the country's capital. Also a designated UNESCO world heritage site. One can only marvel at the fact that the place is still standing and in such superb condition.
