Visiting Hulu Langat Look Out Point (Menara Tinjau) (10 Nov 2007)

My colleague, Collen, she introduced this Look Out Point to my other colleagues and I. From her blog (Chinese version)http://shiuanandkomei.blogspot.com/2007/10/nganga.html, the photos she took from the Look Out Point were so beautiful. Thus, I told Boon about this place and we planned to find the way to this Lookout Point. First time we tried to go there was last month, but we weren't able to find the correct way there. Finally, last Saturday we were able to get there and it was after a heavy rain in KL. We reached the Look Out Point entrance was about 9.45pm. I saw there were a lot of cars driving upwards to the Look Out Point via the entrance. I was thinking why Boon didn't know about this place since he was born in KL. =_=" The road to the Look Out Point was a bit narrow due to the cars were parking on both side of the road. Anyway, we were abled to find a parking space at the car park in front of the cafes and restaurant. There has 1 cafe in the middle of another 2 restaurants. The restaurant at the left hand side which is the nearest to the staircase to reach the Look Out Point was the most happening restaurant. It was crowded with people. We went to the Look Out Point first. There was a lot of people: groups of friends, couples and families. Wow! The night was so amazing! The night scene was so beautiful as the sky was so clear. We went there at the right time. :-P Don't jealous. Hehe... Nowadays it is hard can get a clear night view in Malaysia. The Twin Towers and the KL Tower were so outstanding. We even could see the Genting Highlands from the Look Out Point and there was fireworks everywhere in KL. Although the night scene was so beautiful, it was hard to catch with a normal digital camera. I tried few times with my digital camera with normal mode and night mode, the photos looked blur especially using night mode. Too bad! Luckily Boon used DSLR camera with tripod and he was able to shoot nice photos, but due to people kept coming and leaving the Look Out Point, the tower which was built from planks was shaking most of the time, so a lot of photos are shaking too. We spent about 2 hours taking photos at the Look Out Point then only went to the most happenings restaurant to try the food there. The restaurant was playing HK singer, Justin's Concert VCD when we went there. We ordered hot chocolate, hot coffee, chicken chop, fried shumai and french fries which cost about RM40. The drinks and food tasted good, but the french fries were a bit salty for me. :-P As a conclusion, this Look Out Point is a nice place for gathering or birthday celebration. So don't miss it out!
