Terengganu, State on east coast of Peninsular Malaysia

Terengganu extends along 320 kilometers of South China Sea coastline, featuring mountain ranges, tropical forests, and numerous river settlements.

The region transformed from a Javanese vassal state in 1365 to an independent sultanate in 1724 under the reign of Tun Zainal Abidin.

The state population consists of 95 percent Malay Muslims who maintain traditional practices including batik textile production and songket weaving.

The monsoon season affects transportation for four months annually, with heavy rains causing flooding that disrupts road access across the region.

Lake Kenyir, formed through the construction of Sultan Mahmud Power Station, stands as the largest artificial lake in Southeast Asia.
