Temerloh is a town where I stayed before, when my father was posted to one of the Secondary School as a teacher. I stayed there for 3 years studying from Form 1 to Form 3 in in one of the secondary school.
The thing that I love most in Temerloh is its famous Sunday Market situated in front of the Temerloh Stadium. This market is known as "Pekan Sehari" to locals. This Pekan Sehari is a one day open market, it is said to be the largest and the longest market place in the whole of Pahang State. For fish lovers, there are several varieties of freshwater fish sold here. Some freshly caught from the surrounding villages. Fishes that are really popular here such as "Patin", "Talapia" and "Baung".
Fish price sold here is quite reasonable. In Temerloh, you will find a lot of signboard showing places where they are selling this fish. From this fish they created the famous dish where locals call it "Ikan Patin Masak Tempoyak". Most of fish lovers will not miss this opportunity to enjoy "Ikan Patin Masak Tempoyak". Tempoyak is a kind of paste..... actually a process "Durian".... added with sugar and salt and kept for several days before taken. So the taste is bit different from fresh Durian.
Along the way to Temerloh from Bahau, Negeri Sembilan, I pass through a place call Bera. This is the place where you can find 'Tasik Bera', fishing heaven for aglers to catch exotic fish like Patin, Baung and also Talapia.
Another popular place in Temerloh, is "Gunung Senyum" which offers jungle and wild-life experiences and the most popular place is Gunung Senyum Recreational Forest, a paradise for nature and cave lovers and it is just about 20 km away from Temerloh. Gunung Senyum is located at Bukit Rengit, Lancang. Anyway if you are planning a vacation trip, there is nothing to loose if you list Temerloh as one of your stop over. I am sure you won't feel regret to be in a such nice place especially with your family. That's all for today ... daaaa see you in my next trip bye.
