Detour and destess (2) 歇息及消压



第二天,我们从怡保,使用新邦波赖-金马伦公里,在午间抵达了金马伦高原。

我们在甘榜拉惹牛记饭店享用午餐。这餐馆以河鱼著名,但它的罗惹(水果及酱参拌小吃)也非常的好吃。

进宿了酒店后,我到附近的露天菜市场逛逛。这里售卖各种本地的蔬菜及果实。

草莓是金马伦目前最流行的物品。除了到处都有摊档售卖草莓意外,还有许多相关产品,如草莓玩具,草莓枕头,草莓装饰物等,当然这些都是来自中国啦。

傍晚,我们到冷甲回家老朋友吴思明夫妇。

思明因为要去巴登威利教导一组学生要理,所以我们也跟着去。

这是我第一次到这里的耶稣圣心小教堂。

根据思明所说,这件教堂比加尔默罗圣母堂(金马伦的主要教堂)更老,大约超过80年的历史了。在天主教通信录里,没有这件教堂的任何资料。

我想探寻及查看这小教堂的历史,但得到的却是疑问比答案多。

我希望金马伦的信众们,能够提供或更新这小堂的完整资料,以保留及保存这一项重要的历史。

Arriving noon time at Cameron Highlands via Simpang Pulai-Cameron highway.

We stopped at Ah Niu Restaurant at Kg Rajah for lunch. The restaurant is known for its river fish dishes, and its Rojak is great too.

After checking into the hotel in Brinchang, I went out to explore the nearby Kea Farm market. It sells all types of local vegetables and fruits.

Strawberry is the IN thing of the highlands. Everywhere you can find strawberry stalls, strawberry toys (of course it is Made In China), strawberry pillows and so on.

We went down to Ringlet to say hello to Cindy and Paul Ng in the evening.

We followed Paul to a chapel in Bertam Valley where he was teaching Catechism to a group of students.

It was the first time I came to this chapel.

According to Paul this chapel is about 80 years old, which is older than the Chapel of our Lady of Mt Carmel. However, this chapel is not listed in the church directory, no information can be found ....

Searching deeper into the history of the chapels in Cameron Highlands, rendering more doubt than answer. Hope the faithful in Cameron Highlands can do something more to update and preserve this precious piece of history.
