Hot Spring @ Sungkai (Air Panas Sungai Klah)
September 11th, 2008 | by jys |I heard about this hot spring at Sungkai from quite a number of people. Some said nice, some said so so.. Never trust what ppl said 100% until you see it for yourself, hehe, so there we go, to the hot spring at Sungkai.
It’s about 45 minutes – 1 hour journey from the Sungai Buloh toll to Sungkai toll. Just follow the Ipoh’s direction and about 45 minutes later, you will see this..
After 45 minutes, we're almost there!!
After the toll (RM 13++), go straight (till you see the traffic light) and turn left. You will see this sign board. Go straight again after turn left and ..
turn left again.. Just follow these sign boards.
It's about 10am+ on a Saturday morning. A nice and lovely morning!!
go straight and go straight some more and you'll see this.. 7km more!!
It seems like we're in a kampung. see this kampung road!!
another 4 more km..
wah seh, so deep inside one.. never ending kampung road..
Finally, we're here!! Although this is the main entrance, don't rushed in. Turn right to get your tickets first.
The ticket counter. RM 10 per person and RM 8 for kids.
After you get your tickets, don’t parked your car there. Drive in, there’s a big car park inside!!
Let's go!! The guards let us in after making sure we have the tickets.
The map
The big octopus
This is the first thing we saw. There were already a lot of kids enjoying themselves there at the pool. The water is cold here, not hot!! Water here is not very deep, suitable for little kids. Beside the octopus, there’s this..
The fake waterfall! The water is deeper here..
This one very nice ler, if you stand below the waterfall, it’s like massaging your back!! So strong and powerful, a very good massage if you have a stiff neck!!
Nice right?
We headed to the hot spring pool after taking a few pictures with this giant octopus!! The hot spring is at the other side.
the water in this pool is a little bit warm. water not too deep as well.
We were not allowed in this pool. Not sure why, it's 40-43 celcius. If you wanna see you are healthy or not, try to walk on these little stones, if you if you don't feel pain, that means you're very healthy!! I feel pain ler.. **sob **sob
The egg boiling place. Let's boil egg!!
don't play play wor..see the water boiling?
you want half boil or full boil?
we brought 20++ eggs but we only boil 10++ lar, each person one enuf lor..boil boil boil..Althought it says 6-7 minuets but since we're boiling so many eggs, we waited for another 3 minutes, a total of 10 minutes!
dun play play, got soya sauce some more.. wuahahahaha..
sorry lar, i know very ugly, very hot mar..
yummy!
Besides the egg boiling pool, there’s another pool beside for people to boil their legs. hehe.. not boil lar, for you to ‘zham’ your leg. Heard ppl said it’s very good if you got rough skin wor.. not sure lar..
this pool is very hot!
how hot? 42 - 50 celcius!!
This pool is too hot for me, i only can touch a bit but not able to soak my whole leg in.. but some ppl can tahan ler..the auntie beside me soak for more than half an hour!! damn geng!! see her leg? two colors already!!
see her leg or not? half red already.. that's how hot the water.. i also dare not put my feet in.. damn geng lar, this auntie..
After enjoying ourselves at the hot spring, we went back to the giant octopus pool to play water. We spent about 4 hours at the hot spring and left about 3pm. Food were not allowed cos there’s a cafeteria there but we did not eat there lar (except the egg). After shower, we headed to the Sungkai town to try their famous ‘chu sao’ (pig hand or leg?? (猪手)) at the Choy Kee Restaurant (财记饭店).
Did I have fun? Oh well, ok lar, not bad lar, I think kids will enjoy more!! If you have kids, bring them here lar, they’ll love it!!

I went in June this year, no more octopus.
Spend a nite there at Felda residence for RM220. big room, got one spare single tilam. double bed tilam can be put down. So 5 ppl can stay in a room. budget stay.
Jys:
hmmm, seems like not bad.. but will it be boring to stay over night there? got any activities at night?
