Pulau Sembilan
Imagine a seaside that glows. Like in the movie Avatar where woodsprites (seeds of the sacred tree) float about like glowing jellyfish.
In real life, this is called bioluminescence, where light is produced by chemical reactions within millions of living organisms.
Puerto Rico’s Bio Bay or the Maldives’ Bioluminescent Beach are famous sites in the world to see this. But how about an island off Perak?
At the Pulau Sembilan archipelago of nine islands, about 50km west of Teluk Intan, we have a true treasure nicknamed Blue Tears beach, where the water glistens like stars in the sky.​

It is famous for the gigantic God statues and the blessings. Many who went there to pray had won lottery. That is also the reason how it can change from a small temple into an attraction site. It is because Chinese believe that when you strike a jackpot, you have to donate part of it as charity. So, you can imagine how many donation it has received from these people, in order to turn it into such a beautiful place with so many giant statues.
