Guys, Yesterday I went to Tanjung Piai a national park in Malaysia locate at the southern-most end. You can see Indonesia and Singapore from here. Malacca straits are in front of you.

Tanjung Piai is a mangrove forest (coastal swamp). Mangrove forests are immensely important for natural order, you can read the details here > Mangrove - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As for the structure, the whole building and pathways are made of wood, the pathways are about 2.5 km which go deep in the mangrove woods and at three places move through the ocean (like peers). The place is beautiful, I've been visiting commercial sites till now and it came as breath of fresh air.

This trip also allowed me to observe the peaceful villages along the way and lots of palm tree plantations (palm oil is one of the major exports in Malaysia).

Some pictures - enjoy:

You can see ships moving toward Johar post and Singapore port. Some 20 to 30 ports were there. Not visible from pictures but water changed its color to dark blue about a kilometer off the coat.
