Destination 12~ Chini Lake-tasik chini(Pahang)


~Assalamualaikum n hello..this time i would like to tell about Chini Lake or most well known as Tasik Chini at Pahang.Tasik Chini (Lake Chini) is located some 100 kilometres from Kuantan. The lake is a string of several connected lakes. A legend tells us, that a sea serpent inhabits one of the lakes called Laut Gumun.Tasik Chini is also believed to be the site of a sunken Kmer city and many archaeologists have mounted expeditions to locate it.Fishing , camping, jungle trekking, boating and visiting Orang Asli villages are the main activities here.
tasik chini~~

Tasik Chini at Pahang...go to Pahang again..
 
Access to Tasik Chini is via Kampung Belimbing and then by boat along the Chini River, or (the best) by road to the town of Chini and then through an oil palm estate to the lake.Many hotels in Kuantan organise day trips to Tasik Chini.The lake is lying majestically among 12,000 acres of lush tropical wilderness, Tasik Chini provides such beauty that it is possible to walk for miles without feeling bored. The size of the lake itself is subjective to regular periods of expansion and contractions. It is at its largest size during the monsoon months, which falls from October to January. Virtually undisturbed for centuries, Tasik Chini itself is a habitat for over 144 species of fishes.
The best time to visit Tasik Chini is from June till September when large areas of the lake are covered with a carpet of pink and white lotus flowers.
Lotus flower...beautiful right??

Earnest bird watchers will be happy to know that over 200 species of birds were recorded.
Chini is a premier bird watching destination in Peninsula Malaysia. There are three bird watching trails, which go through different habitats. During the months of October to March, migratory birds come to Chini from the northern parts of Asia to escape the winter.If you could get lucky you could spot wildlife as the surrounding forests still support tigers, tapirs and elephants, all endangered species.Other wildlife known to exist in the forests around Lake Chini include the clouded leopard, wild boars, mouse-deer.The Chini River  is the only river draining into the Pahang River from the lake. If you're planning to make a boat trip up the river, make sure to tell your boatman not to speed. That's the only way to take in what the jungle has to offer.At the mouth of this 4.8km river, is a dam built to retain and maintain the water level in the lake. The local authorities dammed up the Chini River in 1995.The lake water used to rise and fall with the seasons. During rainy seasons, water would gush down from Datang River in the Northwest, Gumum River in the Northeast, Perupok River in the West and Melai River in the South and all the excess water would converge down Chini River and gently filter out into the Pahang River
