Kuala Kedah Fort

Photos of my visit quite some time back
to the old Fort of Kuala Kedah,
one of the most intact one in Malaysia
now preserved as a museum.

    There's so much of history where I am and after seeing all the beautiful pics, I need to explore more on my own country.

    Like people say 'a picture tells a thousand words'. These pics tells a lot about the fort. They really complement what's written in history. Thanks for sharing.
