Tumpat Temple Tour! Thai Settlement in Kelantan, Malaysia - DAY TRIP from Kota Bharu / TRAVEL VLOG

On this travel vlog, we visit a Thai community in Tumpat, Kelantan, Malaysia!
We took a Grab car from Kota Bharu to Tumpat and decided to explore the Temples that dot the city. The temples are very spread out so we wanted to rent a motorbike when we bumped into a local Malay Muslim lady who offered us to take us around.
There are 25 Buddhist Temples in Tumpat! But we only got to visit 3 of the biggest ones:
1. Wat Phikulthong - Standing Buddha Statue
2. Wat Machimmaram - Big Sitting Buddha Statue
3. Wat Phothivihan - The most popular temple in Kelantan as it has the largest and longest sleeping Buddha statue.
The nice lady also took us to a local traditional Malay market where we had Thai food for lunch. We had Tom Yam - a sour and spicy seafood which we enjoyed.
We were surprised that there are so many Buddhist temples in the Islamic state of Kelantan. It shows the beauty of multiculturalism in Malaysia. We had fun exploring this Malaysian Kampung.
We hope this Kelantan travel guide and Malaysia travel guide will help you plan your trip in Malaysia, especially if you are wondering for things to do in Kelantan and things to do in Malaysia.
