4D3N Itinerary in KOTA BHARU, KELANTAN (Food, Accommodation, Things to See)
KOTA BHARU is a town located in Kelantan, in the northeastern part of Malaysia (close to the Thai border). Best known for its rich cultural heritage, it can also be a foodie haven.
How to get there:
From Kuala Lumpur, you can fly directly to Kota Bharu, or take a coach from major bus stations, or take the train (Kuala Lumpur - Gemas - Wakaf Bharu).
How to get around:
There are public buses, taxis, and trishaws, but to me, the easiest way is by Grab, as you also get to know the fare beforehand, thereby reducing the risk of getting ripped off.
Where to stay in Kota Bharu:
We stayed at ASLAH BOUTIQUE HOTEL right in the city center, close to all the major attractions.

Omg yesss, the seafood! Fruits and seafood were so cheap there back then, and they were much better than the ones in KL too. I lived there from 1996-2005.
Never been to Kelantan. Shall visit after watching your video.

I like this eco-concept of food wrapping into palmtree leaves. Rice wrapped into paper envelopes also looks cool!

Plus, the banana leaf that we use as food wrappers actually give it a nice aroma. You should try some when you come visit. 😁
Well done ! Very informative and one of the clearest , articulated narrative 👍👍👍
