Perlis

For the adventurous, consider a caving activity. Walk along the wooden bridge at Gua Kelam 1 to catch a glimpse of a small river, spot bats hanging from the top of the cave and more.

Perlis is also known for its cheap and affordable prices when it comes to shopping. Drop by Padang Besar Waremart and Arked Niaga Padang Besar, which are located near the border of Thailand. Here, you will get a chance to shop to your heart's content from stalls that sell local products at reasonable prices including tasty treats and souvenirs for you to take back as a memory of your trip to Perlis.

Next, visit Ladang Kenaf in the evening for a delightful feast for the eyes (and for your camera), where the vast open fields are surrounded by beautiful blooming flowers for that picture-perfect moment. At Ladang Kenaf, you will get to enjoy walking through the tall flowers while basking in the magnificent rays of the sun.

To end your first night, stop by Anjung Keli for a hearty meal. This large buffet-style restaurant is known for its selection of local delicacies. Simply fill your plates with some of Perlis’ specialities and enjoy!

Start your day by dropping by Warung Tepi Sawah for an unforgettable breakfast with a view. The restaurant offers a large food selection, allowing you to enjoy the true wonders of a traditional Malaysian breakfast. Not only is the food the highlight of this place, but the view is definitely a plus point. Enjoy your delectable breakfast against a glorious backdrop of paddy fields that surround the restaurant.

After a filling breakfast, drop by Pusat Kecemerlangan Mempelam Harumanis to find out more about the mango plantation in Perlis. The Harumanis area consists of over 44 hectares of mango trees and other new plants. During your visit, be sure to try out the sweet and fleshy mangoes that are homegrown in this very garden. This plantation is said to have some of the best mangoes you will ever encounter. Another fan favourite from Pusat Kecemerlangan Mempelam Harumanis is a sweet glutinous rice delicacy served with a side of fresh mangoes, combining sweet and savoury flavours unlike any other.

After visiting Pusat Kecemerlangan Mempelam Harumanis, visit Bukit Chabang to take in its extraordinary view. This large open space offers unobstructed views of tall hills that surround the area. You will also get to interact with farm animals like friendly goats and chickens that roam freely around the field.

For a glimpse of a majestic sunset, make your way to the Timah Tasoh Lake. This water reservoir is home to many aquatic life as well as birds that also freely roam the area. Grab a spot near the lake, watch the sunset and witness the magnificent shadows it casts upon the area.

Cap off the night at Ladang Kenaf and enjoy an early dinner at Ladang Nipah Kipli. This restaurant is surrounded by tall palm trees within a big open field. Enjoy a comforting bowl of laksa (spicy noodles in tangy broth) as you sit under the shady trees or in the wooden huts at the restaurant.
