Kedah's border
town - Baling
Baling
Sounds nice but remote. Where is this place and how is it like?
Too late now, the town is just like any other more town minus the
highrise. Buildings were new and well scattered, giving an
impression of town in the garden. The town was somewhat well
seggregrated, the old town tucked in a nice corner at the foot of
this massive limestone hill.
 |
From
the highlands, the new highway to Kroh, you can see that
piece of hill. Almost solitary with near vertical slope,
the town sat beneath that massive "Boulder" |
| Now a close up view of that hill and some
part of the entrance into town. The new town portion,
just after this scene were a couple of rows of shophouses
in fair length street! |
 |
 |
This picture shows almost the full length of
the much shorter street in the old town. |
Again note
that close proximity to the limestone hills.
