On Sah Kecil Island, some 8km from Pengkalan Gawi, another curious attraction beckons visitors. Medicinal potions and herbal drinks are on offer here, freshly brewed by medicine men cum researchers, stationed at the Herb Park. Over 200 species of medicinal plants and herbs are currently being cultivated here, including the popular Tongkat Ali, which is purported to contain properties which can increase strength and virility.
The apparent pride and dedication of those involved in developing this park is heartening. The four guides at the Herb Park will be more than happy to explain the medicinal properties of the various herbs and plants. They look forward to transforming the Herb Park into one of Kenyir's most famous attractions, looking into the possibility of developing a traditional spa facility, using age-old remedies concocted from medicinal herbs cultivated here. The combination of pristine natural surroundings and fresh herbs seems like an ideal place for a traditional spa dont you think?
next post will be trying out the different types of herbal drinks!
