Shafina, Joshua, Kenmin and co as well as yours truly had a little stint a while ago to Rimbun Dahan. I must thank Shafina for letting us on to this gem of a place and during our visit there, the owner was having an art exhibition entitled Superstar: Art for Nature in collaboration with the World Wildlife Fund. Even without the great gallery, the place was an art piece in itself, beautifully styled in architecture, a blend of modern design embracing nature and an art haven for artists to carry out their hard work. Amidst cascading waterfalls, large pool areas with lotus in bloom, quarky and retro art pieces in every corner and greenery was everywhere, not to mention the free ranging four legged fur balls that roam at will all around. The great spice garden was also an attraction with its myriad plants and Balinese inspired sculptures. The artwork on display were great, I believe a lot of talented artists are found in Malaysia and contributing their art and effort towards conservation is another plus point that shows we care.
