A visit to Tamu kianggeh

Since we know all the benefits of soursop fruit, we have been looking for the fruit for a while now but its not easy to find one.  So we decided to drop by at Tamu Kianggeh and search for it.  Well, we did find one, the ONLY one and with some twist to it.  I am going to blog about it on the next post because I want to dedicate this post to our visit to this place. 

It was a saturday so we didnt find so many people and not so many vendors.   But the weather was breezy and not so hot so its an ideal time to go.  The best time to go is Friday when this tamu is buzzing.  We prefer less people of course, it so hard to menauver around when there are too many people around.


The sign board at the entrance of the tamu

The river splitting the mainland from the tamu area.

There are people selling fresh fish here.

Local vegetables

We could find every kind of vegetables.

Dried fish and shrimps

Me among the crowd

Some cooked food also sold here

At first I didnt know what this is but then I remember they were called "Barut", for kids and for women to use after giving birth.  They are used and wrapped with some herbs around the tummy area to warm up the tummy of mothers and babies.  You dont find these at the supermarkets!

I definitely didnt know what these were then hubby told me they were cigarettes, home made ones.


We are acting like tourists that day, hehe
