I took the above picture when i was in Sibu Town last week end.The picture of Sungai Merah(Red River) Heritage Walk.

Straddling the sungai merah(red river),this heritage walk is a picturesque spot and perfect for your snapshot.According to the history this is where the first Chinese began their affinity with Sibu.If you're lucky enough you will be able to watch the "miracle"where the river water will turn either black or yellow.I was there when the water is black but the reflection of the blue sky make it not visible in this picture but it not a miracle it's the high and low water tide of the river make a water colour change.

This looks like a nice place to stroll, Awang. I like the color and the design of the path and the bridge.

Happy skywatch! And have a good weekend.
