Pura Update

I was at Pura again this afternoon. The progress is good. TITS looked a bit stressed out. Can't blame him as it is not an easy job to deal with contractors who normally do things exactly the opposite from what they are supposed to do. I remember my late father, very particular about quality workmanship, sacked at least 7 contractors in the process of building a house.

By Q1 next year Pura will be fully operational again. I have got to help TITS to promote it. So, any of you interested to appreciate Terengganu heritage, culture and hospitality, do inform me.



Workers applying varnish on wooden frame which soon will have pieces of glasses installed




It's not easy to lock this door when you are in a hurry...





Sliding wall made of mengkuang to give you privacy. You can lift the whole panels if you prefer natural lights into you little suite. I prefer to open everything during afternoon nap.





Garden view from the soon to be gallery and songket workshop.




Nesan Empat suite. My favourite.





Sandstone bricks blend beautifully with natural wooden surrounding. It can be a nice backdrop for a portrait shot too.





Rustic interior. The flooring looks alive again after a new coat of matt varnish.
