The Lion shape rock of Labuan was a surprise find for me
and i only noticed it on my second visit.
It's situated at Tanjung Layang Layangan and locals simply call the place 'Tanjung'
without mentioning any name for the rock
so i now have the courtesy to name it, The Mystical Lion Rock of Labuan
or simply 'Batu Singa Tanjung' in malay.
Some locals says the rock will sometimes move a little foward
and the place is so peaceful and tranquil to be at.
Some parts of the rock are a bit fragile and lets hope visitors don't touch it unnecessarily.

ReplyDeletewow!!! 1st dengar pasal lion rock. lihat pada bentuk batu nampak seperti haiwan. maybe sebab dah terlalu lama, bentuk seakan singa tu dah semakin terhakis dgn perubahan cuaca dan peredaran masa
ReplyDeleteI love the way the rocks have been crafted the ocean and its tide are indeed a great artist :)
