With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to soak up everything that Lanchang, 30 miles away, has to offer. See the best sights beginning with Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary, Kuala Gandah Elephant Conservation Centre and Deerland Park. Locals will also likely point you toward Kuantan, 55 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, let it be Teluk Cempedak Beach. (But we’d also highly recommend Darul Makmur Stadium and Heroes Museum.)
