Galeri Pengangkutan Air, Pekan, Pahang, Malaysia

Traditional Malaysian watercraft are displayed in this very interesting open-air boat museum in Pekan, the royal capital of Pahang, south of Kuantan across the Pahang River about 30 km from our house. Admission is free and what better way to spend a lazy afternoon out of the sun by wandering around looking at the old boats with their colourful trim and carved bows!
