The Fauna of Lembah Temir

You can find lots of different variety of fauna in Lembah Temir. We believe these plants has its value, if now its been idling although someone may know its value. Later, its true value will eventually emerge.

Take for example the banana leaf, most of us know what banana is, a fruit loved by many people around the world. But here in Malaysia, banana leaf is highly sought in "nasi lemak" industry. Nasi Lemak is one of the most popular Malaysia food. More information on nasi lemak http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasi_lemak.

The best nasi lemak is when after the hot rice is prepared, immediately wrapped the rice in banana leaf, leave for a while for the hot rice steam to interact with the banana leaf, an aroma will comes out as a result - this aroma will make nasi lemak even better! Well you can't get that aroma without banana leaf wrapped the rice.

 

Don't forget to taste nasi lemak when you visit Malaysia or Lembah Temir!

Real Green Fauna!

The area close to the waterfall is very damp due to constant stream of misty from the waterfall. Here you can see a very rich green coloured fauna. Nearby the stream, discover dancing "keladi" tree, always dancing to the tune of the water and the wind. Which green colour do you like?

Preserving Temir Valley

Due to its richess in flora and fauna, it is a clean environment. When you can find 'kelah' fish in any location, you can bet that place is clean because kelah will disappear if it gets dirty. Due to that, visitors are highly encouraged to help us preserve Temir Valley rain forest when you visit this place. Enjoy your lunch served on banana leaf or 'daun pisang' as the plate. It is biodegradable and help us to avoid the use of dishwashing liquid altogether and lessen the impact of chemical release into the environment.

What plant is this?

This is another plants found in Temir Valley. Frankly, I do not know what it is called and it is my first time to see such plant. There are many more here. If you like photographing nature, you are welcome to take pictures here. Pictures taken after a light rain is the best, as water reflection on the leaves add depth to the plants green colour.

Temir Valley is rich in flora and fauna

Green is the colour of rain forest. If you ever live in the desert, forest seem to be like a heaven on earth. Cool forest temperature is due to plenty of shades provided by trees racing up the sky in competition for sunlight. The bottom of rain forest is damp and here we can find many kind of plants which sometimes has high medicinal value. No doubt about this as native people depends on the plants for thousands of years to cure their illness.
