Kuala Terengganu
 These
days, the capital is a hive of activity. Changes have been brought about
and is showing marked changes in the skyline. New buildings are replacing
the old ones; the general upliftment of the state's economy brought about
by oil and gas has provided an acceleration into industrialization. Yet,
the charm of the old world is neither lost nor forgotten. Fishmongers
can still be seen haggling over prices of various seafood. It is as if
nothing has changed. It was the way of the old days and is still the way
of the present day. This can be seen daily on the waterfront.
Terengganu State Mosque
 The
mosque was built on the estuary of Terengganu river and its intricate
design gives viewers the impression that the mosque is actually floating
on water. This place of worship is beautifully lit at night and provides
a holy landmark for the city.
Marang
 A
picturesque fishing village that is furnished with tall swaying coconut
trees, cool fresh air, an incredible beautiful lagoon, and a fleet of
fish trawlers. Any visitor to Marang will be easily captivated by its
natural beauty and simple ambience.
Chendering
 About
6km south of Kuala Terengganu is "Sutera Semai Centre". It is Malaysia's
pioneer silk weaving center where visitors can witness different stages
of silk manufacturing. Here, visitors can witness the painting of batik
designs onto the fabric, thus resulting in beautiful batik shirts, scarves,
handkerchiefs, and more.
