The rest of the journey from Kuantan to Kota Bharu takes about 4 1/2 hours.
The route heads northward along the coast passing through picturesque villages
and providing scenic vistas of the palm-fringed beaches overlooking the azure
waters of the South China Sea.
The inland route to Kota Bharu turns off the Karak Highway at Bentong and
proceeds northwards to Raub and then to Gua Musang, before reaching Kota Bharu.
An alternative route exits the Karak Highway at Temerloh and passes through
Jerantut, Benta and Gua Musang en-route to Kota Bharu.
From Penang, one has to get to Grik via Sungai Petani in Kedah and then travel
along the scenic East-West Highway to Jeli in Kelantan before continuing the
journey to Kota Bharu.
