I learned a lot from victor about taking pics. You could consider this post a pictorial essay about Julau.
The river is an important means of transport.
Market scenes
We saw snake meat and other wild meat for sale. I was surprised to see ikan puyu for sale too.
Reading a newspaper while waiting for a boat to go home just like we wait for a bus or taxi. People whiling their time away enjoying the hustle and bustle of town life.
As their homes are far from town, the post box service provides an essential service for people living in the rural areas.
Not much space is wasted. Even nooks and corners in Julau town are used for gardening.
The owner of this motorcycle is creative. By attaching a cart to his motorcycle, the bike is converted to a tricycle which can carry goods for commercial purposes.
OMG! That is python right?
I liked the other shots very much.
More are coming
OMG~!! Snake meat, I hate/ scared it!! >.<”

from u that is a great compliment. thanks!
Nice snaps! Hmm…looks like a fun place to be at. Away from all the hustle and bustle of the city! =)
u r always welcome
I wonder why were you surprised to see ikan puyu for sales. I would be more shocked to see snake meat for sales. He he…That bike with cart should be imported from china and could cost 2-3 times normal price of motorbike.
victor noticed the bike first. i dont know the purpose of the ikan puyu? can it be eaten? it is so small
Nice pics. I’m so used to city life, it’s a nice change to see some rural life.
will u last long in a rural setting?
Oh boy… the snake meat is scary >.<
obviously the one who slaughtered it wasnt scared
Thanks for the Julau tour. I have never tastes snake meat before… have you?
i have
wow the snake is exotic food alrite!
I don’t think can live forever in a rural place : ) I’m so used to city life. But balik kampong or go holiday in a rural place is a good break.
