Never been to Kedah before? huh! rugi 78kilo lar kalo lagu tu...siannn...Kedah best wooooo...best woooo...
Among sooo many great attractions, well I present to u guys Rice Museum @ Gunung Keriang which situated 8km from Alor Setar. Was opened on 2004 inspired by Negeri Kedah itself as 'Jelapang Padi Negara' :-)
Front view of Rice Museum. Senibina diilhamkan dari jelapang padi (tempat orang dulu-dulu simpan padi/beras)
With entrance fee as cheap as RM3/adult, RM1/child and RM2/camera you can enjoy & learn everything about paddy field. Dari proses penanaman sehinggalah ia manjadi makanan yang paling popular skali di Malaysia kat pinggan nasi korang sumer :-)
So, kalau ada adik2, anak2, nieces/nephews maka elok sangat lah ke sana...silap2 diri sendiri pun kena pegi...belajar betapa susahnya seseorang petani itu bekerja membanting tulang mengerjakan bendang (sawah larrr)...
The most interesting I would like to highlight here is the most beautiful & biggest hand painting mural in Malaysia with 8m height and 103m long rotating 360degree on a giant platform at 3rd floor of this museum. By doing nothing, sit tight at any seats available, standby your camera and enjoy the view of traditional rice field village. Awesome!
Oleh kerana saiz mural yang sgt besar, maka sepasukan pelukis2 dari Japan (ker Korea ntahh) mengambil masa berbulan2 nak siapkan menatang nih termasuklah depa buat survey & study dulu..All view painted was real based on sorrounding area at Gunung Keriang, bukan main lukis jer cik Jah oiii...tak der imaginasi ker, khayalan ker..tak der...pemandangan sebenar nih...
Inilah hasilnya!
Cuaca sedikit mendung at this area...nak hujan :-P
"kuning padi di sawahan
hijau pohon merendang
Langkawi indah seri negeri
Jerai mengawan tinggi
Kedah Darul Aman, negeri jelapang padi
Kedah tempat sanjungan sungguh menawan hati"...la..la..la..laaa
Ha! nak story sket nih...Inilah Gunung Keriang. Ada citer2 misteri mengatakan kat lukisan mural tu selalu jer tetiba muncul by itself gambar pompuan rambut panjang pakai baju labuh putih (ha la! kalau pakai baju pink skirt oren korang ingat penyanyi hong kong plak) kat atas gunung tuh...pastu hilang..esok lusa tulat tunging ia muncul kembali...huh! misteri :-o waktu cek snap ni ia takderlah, pegi gunting rambut kot :-P
Tapi cek sumer jangan takut...itu mungkin imaginasi semata2..hihihi.Kalau cik kerbau buat OT, bulihlar merasa naik keta kerbau keliling museum..best! slow giler..kahkahhh. kerbau dia besar sihat dan kuat namanya Hitam (sbb warna hitam, kalau pink, mungkin namanya Pinky).
At outside ada 2 doors cafe selling nasi, laksa & drinks. Laksa dia ok jugak lar. Power lagi laksa cek :-P
So, tunggu apa lagi, kalau ke utara singgah sat ke Alor Setaq, Tak sabar nak pi Muzium padi terketaq-ketaq, Tapi awas hang jangan loglaq, Takut jatuh terbah termakan pasiq
