MARAN, PAHANG

Maran is a town in Maran District of Pahang. Bandar Tun Razak, Jengka is located in the outskirt of the town. Surrounded by isolated forest and oil palms plantations main in the area of FELDA Jengka, Maran town is roughly halfway between Temerloh and Kuantan. Maran is also known as Bandar Ayam Kampung.

Among the interesting places that can be visited in Maran are Sungai Berkelah and Lubuk Yu. Among the small towns found in the Maran district are Pekan Tajau, Pekan Awah, Pekan Chenor, and Pekan Sungai Jerik, which is also called Tong Kiat. Jengka town, which is the heart of the Jengka community, is also located in this Maran district.

The Heart Disease Awareness Program in 2013 was conducted at the Sri Jaya JKKK Hall, Maran, Pahang. This program was in collaboration with The Lions Club of Kuantan with the help of 2 nurses from the Maran District Health Office.

A total of 137 residents of Sri Jaya underwent a one-day Health Screening Test.

The travel distance from our office in Kuala Lumpur to Hotel Sri Jaya, Maran, where we stayed, is 184 km, and the travel time is 2 hours and 3 minutes.

The East Coast Expressway has two exits serving Maran constituency Exit 825 to Maran and Exit 827 to Sri Jaya.

I once prayed at this mosque while attending the Program Coordination meeting in Sri Jaya, Maran on 12 June 2013.

When the Heart Disease Health program was carried out, the country was hit by haze due to forest fires in Indonesia.

It can be seen from the picture above that the haze was quite severe in the town of Sri Jaya, Maran at that time.

Maran is a small place in Malaysia and can be easily explored within a day. There aren't many things to do and attractions to visit in this town. Can check with tourism Pahang website of interesting places to visit in Pahang.
