Tempat-tempat yang dilawati dalam perjalanan ke utara Ramadhan 2010 (Places visited in the trip to the north Ramadhan or Muslim fasting month of 2010)

Alhamdulillah setelah hampir 3 bulan menulis, tamat juga paparan artikel tempat-tempat yang dilawati dalam perjalanan ke utara bulan Ramadhan tahun lepas, artikel-artikel yang menyokong penceritaan siri "Mencari jejak Merong" di blogspot CATATAN SI MERAH SILU. Sedar tak sedar 51 artikel telah dibuat di blogspot ini berdasarkan perjalanan itu. Biar dipaparkan linksnya. Nanti saya akan serapkan ke dalam koleksi menurut negeri di sidebar kanan di mana koleksi negeri Kedah yang meliputi Pulau Pinang dan Perlis akan dipecahkan menjadi koleksi 3 negeri. Untuk makluman ini adalah artikel ke 559 di sini. Maka tamatlah satu fasa...

Thank God after nearly 3 months of writing, the displaying of articles on places visited during the trip to the north in the month of Ramadhan (Muslim fasting month) last year is completed, articles which support the story-telling for the "Mencari jejak Merong" (finding the tracks of Merong, an ancient Malay king) in the blogspot CATATAN SI MERAH SILU. Realising it or not 51 articles have been made in this blogspot based on that trip. Let the links be featured.

Masjid lama (Old mosque of) Taiping

Bersambung dari Masjid (Mosque of) Kampung Gunung Semanggol. Kemudian kami ke Taiping tetapi sampai malam, singgah sebentar di masjid lama yang terletak di tengah bandar. Melihat gambar yang ada baru saya tersedar belum pernah mengenengahkan masjid tersebut di blogspot ini. Maka biar dibuat satu artikel menggunakan gambar-gambar lama bercampur baru. Mari.

Continued from Masjid (Mosque of) Kampung Gunung Semanggol. Next we went to Taiping but arrived at night, stopped by a while at the old mosque which is situated in the middle of town. Looking at the pictures did only I realised I've never highlighted the said mosque in this blogspot. So let an article be made using a combination of old and new pictures. Come.

Saya juga baru menyedari tidak banyak mengambil gambar masjid ini walaupun sudah banyak kali singgah malah bermalam di sana. Diharap sedikit yang ada cukup untuk menunjukkan keadaan masjid lama ini.

I also realised that I haven't taken much pictures of this mosque although I've stopped by many times in fact spent nights there. Hopefully whatever little available is enough to show the condition of this old mosque.




Sedikit maklumat.

A bit of information.
