TAMAN ESPLANADE BENTENG: NADI REKREASI DAN SEJARAH BANDARAYA KUANTAN
Pelancongan bandar dan rekreasi kini menjadi daya tarikan utama di Bandaraya Kuantan, dengan Taman Esplanade Benteng sebagai salah satu lokasi tumpuan. Terletak di pusat bandar, taman ini mempunyai laluan pejalan kaki sepanjang 1 km bersebelahan Sungai Kuantan, menawarkan pemandangan indah dan suasana santai.
Kawasan ini popular untuk aktiviti joging pada waktu pagi dan petang, manakala waktu malam dimeriahkan dengan pertandingan memancing. Selain itu, taman ini bersebelahan dengan Sungai Kuantan, di mana pengunjung boleh menikmati pengalaman Kuantan River Cruise, menyaksikan burung helang, buaya tembaga, dan hutan bakau air masin di muara sungai.
Bukan sekadar lokasi riadah, taman ini juga menjadi pusat pelbagai acara seperti berbasikal dan festival tahunan. Dari sudut sejarah, kawasan ini dipercayai sebagai tapak penempatan awal penduduk Kuantan yang berasal dari Sumatera.

a month agoA relaxing walk along the river, great for winding down at the end of the day. There are a few bikes and wheels here for rent. The pathway also leads you directly to the base of the 188 tower

6 months agoEsplanade Kuantan is a lovely spot for both locals and tourists, offering a peaceful riverside atmosphere that’s perfect for relaxation. The well-maintained walkway along the river allows you to take a leisurely stroll while enjoying the scenic views of the Kuantan River. It’s also a great place for families, with seating areas and nearby food stalls offering local delights. However, it can get a bit crowded during the evenings, especially on weekends. One of the most charming aspects of the area is the nearby street art. The vibrant murals and creative artwork scattered throughout the streets near the Esplanade add a touch of color and culture to the city. These pieces showcase local talent, often depicting traditional scenes, modern themes, or aspects of daily life in Kuantan. It’s an Instagram-worthy spot that offers visitors a unique glimpse into the local culture. While you’re in the area, I highly recommend dining at Udang Celup. Their seabass celup tepung Restaurant is incredibly fresh, perfectly cooked, and delicious, all at a very affordable price. The portion size is generous, and the seafood quality is top-notch. It’s one of the best dishes I’ve had in Kuantan, and the casual atmosphere and friendly service only add to the experience. If you're a seafood lover, this place is a must-visit! Whether you're strolling along the Esplanade, admiring the street art, or enjoying a great meal at Udang Celup, Kuantan offers a blend of natural beauty, culture, and fantastic food.

11 months agoMany areas have been upgraded here and are excellent for tourists who come to rest and take pictures. There are several interesting spots for photography, but the river smell is somewhat unpleasant and parking can be challenging
