    Terengganu, an Malaysias Ostküste, vereint authentische malaiisch-islamische Kultur mit unberührter Natur. Die Inseln Perhentian und Redang bieten erstklassige Tauch- und Schnorchelreviere. In Kuala Terengganu erwarten dich der Markt Pasar Payang und die Kristallmoschee. Regionale Handwerkskünste wie Batik und Songket prägen zudem das kulturelle Bild. Die Trockenzeit von März bis Oktober ist ideal für Inselbesuche, da der Monsun den Fährverkehr sonst beeinträchtigt.
