The signature welcome drink at the Tanjong Jara Resort is roselle, which is derived from the petals of a herbal flower called asumpaya. This was the first taste of Malaysia’s refreshing hospitality. After the flight to the country’s capital Kuala Lumpur, it is a 45 minute flight into Terengganu’s small airport.

One might not think that Kuala Lumpur would be a children’s playground, but on closer inspection, visitors travelling with their families will have plenty of opportunities to explore this fascinating and cosmopolitan city with their children too. With a plethora of attractions, shopping malls, playgrounds and activities, figuring out where to begin will be the hardest part!
The iconic Petronas Towers is a must for those with young children. The dizzying heights and breathtaking views over the city from the skybridge are thrilling to children of all ages. Once back on terra firma, a trip to nearby colourful Chinatown is in order where cultures meet and cheap toys can be purchased – but make sure you keep a close eye on the little ones in the crowds.
