A Quiet Place


A town normally is polluted with noise, people, cars, activities and whatever else that can generate noise. But today I found a peaceful quiet spot in Kuantan (Malaysia), a most unlikely spot. It was behind a big hall called the Silver Jubilee Hall (Dewan Jubili Perak), it was the Silver Jubilee of the period of rule by the present Sultan of Pahang, so I understand (any correction? ) in Jalan (Road) Teluk Sisek.

It has trees, a lake and a construction for a recreation site, an additional recreation garden under construction for the Town was going on.

But it was quiet, one could hear birds singing and one could ever hear one's breathing. That was how quiet it was. From memory, such quietness can only be found in the rural scenes, away from the hustle bustles of towns and cities.
Probably all noise from the main road was blocked by the Hall.
