Details About Kuantan

Destinations » Asia » China - Japan - Korea » Kuantan


The Malaysian port city of Kuantan is warmed by the waters of the South China Sea. It is the growing capital of the state of Pehang, the largest of Peninsular Malaysia. Travelers searching for unspoiled destinations journey here for the deserted beaches. Others come in search of colorful bitiks and delicate silver, both cottage industries passed from mother to daughter, father to son.

Attractions

  • The Gua Charah caves are the site of a revered Buddhist sanctuary. Visitors may explore some of the caves and gorges, including one that houses an impressive stone sculpture of the reclining Buddha.
  • Teluk Chempedak is an excellent beach for water sports activities like sailing, surfing, skiing and sunbathing. The beach is located 5 km from the city centre.

Currency

The currency used is called the Ringgit Malaysia (RM).
