Sungai Kelantan

Sungai Kelantan (29 April, 2017)


Sungai Kelantan is the longest and most important river in Kelantan. The state capital, Kota Bharu, lies on its eastern bank. The name Sungai Kelantan begins at the confluence of Sungai Galas with Sungai Lebir, near the town of Kuala Krai. Above that confluence, the river is called Sungai Galas, Sungai Nenggiri and for its first twenty miles, Sungai Betis.

In addition to Kota Bharu and Kuala Krai, Sungai Kelantan also flows through the town of Pasir Mas. Along with all its tributaries, it has a catchment area totalling 11,900 square kilometers. As it reaches the South China Sea, it fans out into a wide delta.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
