If you happen to visit Pangkor Island at Lumut, you will be missing another awesome nature preserve if you do not pay a short visit at Manjung’s Mangrove Swamp Park or locally known as Taman Paya Bakau, Manjung. The mangrove swamp is located a couple of minutes drive from Lumut town or more precisely located at *Desa Manjung Raya, Sri Manjung.
You may be asking, what is so special with this mangrove swamp?
I am no geoscientist or a geologist but I do know that mangroves are not easily found anywhere except around the coastal wetlands of the tropical and subtropical regions. Mangroves are known to survive in both salt and fresh water. They play a major role as a vital provider of the habitat for animals and plants. Mangroves too help a great deal to protect the mainland from damages of the hurricanes and tidal waves besides working to avoid shoreline erosion.
With that said and I am sure I have bore you peeps down just a little bit ( I hope not
) with a tiny history of a mangrove swamp, so let’s just check out the pictures from this beautiful, mangrove swamp of Manjung.
Hope you enjoy the pictures and do pay this mangrove swamp park a visit if you happen to come down to either Lumut or Pangkor Island or Sitiawan. =)
* To find the exact location of this park in Google map, simply set the direction to Taman Paya Bakau, Manjung.
