Teo Chew Trip- Chapter 3: 青岚冰臼, 澄海,韩文公祠


青岚冰臼 is a nice national park worth spending few hours to explore. The photos taken do not do the actual scenery justice, probably due to poor photoshoot skills. One need to be relatively fit to hike this route.

澄海 is the harbour where our ancestor took the Big Red Head Boat to South East Asia. It's not so much of scenary but more of a reliving our ancestor's route to our current home.


韩文 is a legendary government official in Teo Chew back in the 'Song' dynasty.

Teo Chew Trip- Chapter 2: Teo Chew Old Town

 The 'core' spot of Teo Chew Trip. We can split this area into two main locations- the Old Town and the Bridge. I am very impressed with the Old Town as it has converted into a good tourist spot with ancient city buildings. The Bridge, on the other hand, is as good as advertised, although the crowd is too much to truly enjoy the experience.

Teo Chew Trip- Chapter 1: FengHuang Mountain

 

FengHuang Mountain, an unusual tourist spot in TeoChew as it involves a lot of walking and not suitable for elderly. For the younger tourist, this place has good view, a good hiking route and the scenery is quite beautiful. 

After the short hike, we head for the local TeoChew Chinese Tea.
