Meranto wonders - medical camp trip 17&18 feb 2012

Meranto is situated in the outskirt of Gua Musang, Kelantan. Close to the entrance to Gunung Stong, Dabong, its special feature is the virgin forest alongside the way to the village. Beneath the crest of the mountain lies an untouched forest, full of mysteries. Trees shiver in their vivid costumes, with rows of red leaves hiding the fact that the ageing trees are waiting for their downfall. Rows of red leaves enhance the beauty of the forest, making it similar to autumn in 4 season countries. Perhaps, the mere difference is the surrounding remains green, thus combination of red and green leaves renders it almost impossible to call autumn. Not only the red leaves, the outstretched  branches of old trees also create a panoramic view. 'Carved' into hundreds,or perhaps thousand small branches, the sight of old trees with unique branches distinct it from typical forests in Kelantan. Gazing over rows of red leaves with beautifully carved branches overlooking a river with crystal clear water and a majestic mountain as background give the most magnificent view. It's a blessing to enjoy the natural beauty of the forest and Meranto trip is definitely a must for nature lovers!
