A weekend in Kota Baru: 5 must-see places in Kelantan's capital


The Siti Khadijah Market is one of Kelantan’s top tourist attractions. — Siti Khadijah Market Islamic Tourism Centre of Malaysia

If you haven’t been to Kelantan, perhaps it is time to plan for a trip there, in conjunction with Visit Kelantan Year 2024. Various programmes and events will be held throughout this year to lure more tourists; the state government is targeting over two million arrivals during this period, too.

Dabong Railway, sometimes also known as the “Jungle Railway”, may spring to mind when talking about Kelantan. Though it is an exciting way to explore parts of the state, there is definitely more to Kelantan than just this particular scenic train journey.
