 River Cruise Sungai Terengganu
 

In the second century AD, a small but important trading port has existed on the river of Terengganu. Travellers from all over the region came to deal, barter and sell in this flourishing place.  They call this port, Primula.  During this voyage to the southern countries, admiral Zheng Ho once disembarked at the estuary of Terengganu River, and it was said that the followers built Sam Poh Kong Temple in upriver Kampung Jeram, signifying the importance of this place that the great admiral decided to make Primula his port of call.

 

Over the years, the banks of Terengganu River have been a hive of numerous activities.  Locals were known for their skills in boat building and handicraft making.

 

 

 

They were also recognize as great sailors, braving the ruthless monsoon of the South China Sea.  Slowly but surely, the trading activities in Primula prospered well into 19th century, eclipsed only by the emergence of other important regional ports.

 

Now we are bringing you the opportunity to relive the colourful past of Primula.  Experience what the sailors and visitors to Terengganu would have encountered as they navigated along Terengganu River.  The cruise along the Terengganu River will bring you right to the cradle of Terengganu's history and culture, and her world of flora and fauna !!!
