We were amazed at the many unusual type of fruits. We get to sample the red colour lemba batu. Inside this fruit is a black colour seed which is extremely sweet. After sucking the seed, the sweetness retains in the mouth for at least half an hour. Even the water that we drank also tasted sweet!!

Plenty of exotic fruit juices and rojak (mixed fruit salad) are sold here besides the fruits. We bought back some pineapples and durians.
